East Coast Dorado Fever - KZN REPORT (04 DECEMBER '25)
Loading player...
The KZN coast is buzzing like never before this season, and this weekend is shaping up to be pure chaos — in the best way! From the lower north coast down to Margate, Grey sharks, Honeycomb rays, skates, and Shad are all on a mission, hammering anything that hits the water, while bronze bream in the rocky gullies are tearing into prawn baits with full-on fury.
Offshore, it’s electric from north to south. Dorado are absolutely ripping it up, from feisty juveniles to absolute bulls and Couta continue to dominate, snoek are schooling, and bottom fishing is producing chunky rockcod — the action never stops.
Inland, the Midlands has been soaked by summer rains, filling dams and turning rivers muddy, but keen anglers are still finding pockets of magic. Upper river reaches are clearer and fishable, while Sterkfontein continues to fire for both small- and largemouth yellowfish. The inland scene may be wetter and trickier, but for those ready to brave it, the rewards are huge.
Whether you’re chasing salt or fresh, this weekend promises biting fish, calmer winds, and conditions lined up for serious angling action — KZN is ON FIRE!
