6 Keepers, latest catches.
The sun finally came out for a few hours and we decided to visit a private dam in Stellenbosch.
We knew they had bass of up to 2.2Kg, because we caught a few earlier this year. We didn’t expect great results, but decided to stick around and try out all the new lures we acquired.
It was slow going at first, with myself losing 4 bass through the course of the day. Sw van der Merwe on the other hand stuck to his gut feeling and brought in two nice bass of 1.16Kg and 1.13Kg respectively. At the end he caught 4, but we’re not going to mention the 4th one.
We slowly moved down the lake and noticed around 50 huge carp mating, or so it seemed. We had a few casts and lo-and-behold the bass were hungry!
Sw caught a whopper 1.50Kg, and as a I moved to help him, my rod was almost ripped out of my hand, landing a nice 1.32Kg. A few minutes later I also landed a 1.44Kg.
All in all it was an amazing day, and what a way to start off the season. Can’t wait for full-on spawning season. Might just hit the 3Kg when we visit the dam again.
Keep on bassin’
