Overberg Angling

So it was decided by Riyaad, we go out to his other spot last night. I was a bit undecided in the beginning. Eventually I said what the hell. With almost no bait(ek likes my prawns) I decide I will go.

Riyaad said he had a Guest Angler who will join in last night , he goes by the name of Sailfish.



Anyway I call Riyaad to find out if he is there already, he says just pulled up 15mins ago. I get there @ 20h30, I checked my fishingreminder website and the major time was 20h30 to 22h30.

Get there the parking is full of bakkies and cars. Looks like day, there was more than 1 guest angler, Shaheed Taliep graced us with his presence.


So it was Riyaad, Haroun,Yaseen, Rory, Shaheed,Sailfish and a few other guys and myself. I setup next to Shaheed and I reckon ons gan nou hulle gate slat LOL.1st cast with Wonderworm. A small barbell and I get tangled into Shaheed. I cast again but shallower and go to Riyaad and Co. Shaheed flashed his light, jou stok. I say daai ding moet sak man. I pick up I feel something, but it’s just heavy weight. I tell him this is a Barbel. Out comes a stump measures 29cm. 1st fish on wonderworm cos I told Shaheed I never caught a fish on Wonderworm. Throw again same bait. 2mins and the rod bounces again. Pick up feels better no real fight but he holds me there. I land a DAS 36cm , fished with 1\0 Circle and he swallowed the hook to his gills. After that it was quite



Myself and Shaheed left @ 00h00. Rory left before that. I don’t know if anything else was caught after we left. Riyaad has to confirm. The pressure was stable which was not ideal. I could only see the pressure when I got home. Sunday was the same where the pressure was stable and only 1 0r 2 fish was landed.

Hi Razeen. Nice fish there boet, makes an oke wanna get down to the surf. Pity not all of us are so close to the sea.

Good catch, I get the feeling that you are waiting for the steenies to come in. Where were you fishing?

I will try for them tommorrow.

Amberjack - thanks

Wep - not my spot to give away but in the Beespens vicinity. hope it helps

Thanks Now I know where. They said that some big Cob came out as well in that area.

I will move to blue waters on low tide tommorrow.
