Big stumpnose at uShaka
We have heard of good stumpnose fishing in the uShaka area over the past week.
Durban has been an excellent spot to fish in the last week.
The piers, beaches and harbour have all been fishing exceptionally well.
Stumpnose and pompano have made up the bulk of edible catches in these areas, ranging from Blue Lagoon down to the North Pier.
Shad have been landed the whole week and have continued to bite through the weekend. With the reopening of shad season, Blue Lagoon will return to its former state and have many a keen angler out to catch their share of these tasty fish.
Stumpies up to 5kg have been caught in the uShaka area by anglers using sealice or red-eye baits. Grunter have been surprisingly scarce considering how many have been caught in the harbour over the last week. Blue Lagoon managed to produce a garrick or two over the last week, but these fish should be seen in better numbers now that shad are legal to use as bait.
