Plenty grunter at Umkomaas

Plenty grunter at Umkomaas

We have heard of good grunter fishing at Umkomaas over the past week.

Umkomaas anglers have reported a large amount of grunter catches at the mouth on smaller baits, while anglers throwing larger baits managed to hook into some excellent sized kingies. Small brown rays have been caught in between the grunter and kingies and according to reports, there have been a few massive sharks patrolling the backline.


Scottburgh had a limited selection of target species and fished very well for snoek on spoon when the winds permitted. Plenty of smaller sharks were landed, with many being under 10kg. 


Hibberdene has had an up and down week with some shad and some small kingfish. 


Port Shepstone has seen lots of shad and some nice bronze bream. Houndsharks have been on and off the bite throughout the week.

 
Margate is also getting some bigger shad and bronze bream on the low tides. 


Port St John's north has seen plenty raggies, kob, bronze bream and bigger shad. Lapatana has been especially good for shad, with reports suggesting that the majority of fish have been over 1kg and fish of 4kgs are not uncommon. South of Port St John's anglers have landed some lovely Zambezi sharks and raggies on large slide baits - the bigger and bloodier the better. Mustad Tuna Circle hooks have been doing an excellent job for these toothy critters. Anglers are also hooking into some very nice garrick, as well as some nice bronze bream. The junior anglers are getting into some excellent bronze bream at the moment, mostly on chokka baits and prawn baits.
