The Autumn Sweet Spot - KZN REPORT (14 May '25)

--:--

The autumn fishing season has hit its epic sweet spot! From the North Coast to the South Coast, and inland waters too, the action is non-stop with a massive variety of species being landed — kob, snoek, tuna, brusher, sharks, and more. Offshore and inshore hotspots are firing, and even the Stillwaters are alive with trout activity. With just two weeks left in the trout river season, and the South Coast producing daily record catches, now is the time to hit the water. Full moon? Spring tides? The stars have aligned. Pack your gear, listen to our latest Deep Dive episode on moon and tide fishing, and let’s get tight lines and make this weekend one to remember!
