Vlei kurpers

The below YouTube link shows footage taken by a diver at Bass Lake, south of Johannesburg.

In the video you can clearly see various breeding pairs of vlei kurpers guarding their 1000s of small fry.

Just check the size of these vlei kurpers and the colour variations of dark blue, olive green and the normal dark vertical bars.

Wouldn't mind hooking one of them.

And being Bass Lake, there are a couple of bass to be seen as well.

Cheers

Amazing!

Nice vid, the description says the fish in the vid are bass yet it seems that most of the footage are of vleikurper...there is such a great need to educate our anglers of our native species^^..
