ANSA - KZN REPORT 30 JUNE 23

Loading player...
Just like that we are over the halfway mark for 2023...The sardines are still around in big numbers, but the rains will slow down the action for a few days.Offshore: The offshore has been up and down. The seas have been choppy but those that have launched have landed some good fish.Rock and Surf:  Most of the shore-based anglers have focussed on the sardine action. There have been good nets pulled with some decent fish landed, let's hope the recent rain doesn't destroy the action.Freshwater: The freshwater fishing has been good for those braving the cold mornings. The bass require a bit more focus, but the trout and carp are feeding rather well.
