Amazing enough , I had a triple up on all 3 of my rods , 3 rd fish was under a KG , did not make the photo lol . For a moment it felt like I was a bloemhof dam .

Awesome venue 🎉🎉🎉

What baits worked the best? My dad still does some conventional angling and I only do specimen angling. We're fishing at Vosrite next weekend. Haven't been to the Vaal this year at all.

On the specimen side , soaked my hook bait in HI Line coconut concentrate, used a tigernut with a fake tiger attached. Attached about 5 large tigernuts as freebies with PVA

On the pap gooi side , only fished soft floaties ( fireball , Perri Perri , Tjop Tjop and banana )

Concentrates used : Perri Perri , fireball , Tjop Tjop and granadilla .

Hop this helps

We managed about 30 fish in total, catfish were very active. Biggest carp was just over 10 kg and got a nice mirror of 9.1 kg. Critically balanced tiger with cork and fake maize worked the best.
