Huge shark caught at Winkelspruit
We have been told of a very large grey shark caught on the KZN south coast during the past week.
The south coast has been a garrick fisherman's dream this past week.
There have been millions of sardines all the way along the coast and all the usual suspects along with them.
Toti has had plenty of sardines around and these have brought the fish in nicely - garrick and shad being the most abundant.
Winkelspruit also fished well and produced an SA record grey shark of 325kg. Natal snoek, shad and kingfish have been out of control in these areas, not to mention the many of garrick being landed.
Down at Port Shepstone the sardines are around and are holding good fish. If anglers find the sardines, they will almost certainly find fish with them. Large sharks, garrick, kob and kingfish have been plentiful.
Transkei has also seen millions of sardines in the Waterfall Bluff area with big shoals of gamefish with them. The majority of these fish have been yellowtail or yellowfin tuna. The rest of the Transkei has been relatively quiet with only a few kob and shad being reported. Towards the end of the week, nice edibles such as brusher and bronze bream were caught.
