Durban harbour grunter and shad

Durban harbour grunter and shad

Durban harbour has been rather erratic with its catches of late, with only a few kingfish landed over the last week.

The grunter have been on the bite and some fairly large specimens have been boated.

However, the fishing is on and off, so be careful of moving from spot to spot in a hurry.

Towards the mouth, anglers have caught a number of shad on a variety of baits, which have provided good fun on grunter tackle.

Unfortunately, the shad season only opens on 1 December and so anglers had no choice but to return their shad to the water.

Durban angler, Seelan Thaver, caught a nice grunter at the Yacht Mole yesterday. He used cracker shrimp as bait and caught his fish on the incoming tide.
