Hi Nembwe,

Die sensasie is nogal anders om hulle in die donker te vang as wanneer dit lig is. Goed gedaan.

As jy weer een aand gaan, probeer bietjie op die plons metode vang.

Naruto. I wouldnt say its difficult but first of all its a bit tricky to get big fish away from the structure. a Big cat can drag you around for a bit until you get its head lifted. I dont put the big ones inside the kayak cockpit as it thrash around too much. a Lipgrip is a must with cats and if you bring it to the side of the yak you can grab it with the lipgrip to put in the crate or pose for for a pic.I dont use a landing net as it just take up too much space and is cumbersome to handle whith the rod in your other hand.
