Warner Beach fishing very well
We have heard of good fishing at Warner Beach on the KZN south coast this past week.
Just south of Durban had been extremely quiet lately. Warner Beach was more alive with of pompano and stumpnose biting there in the last week. Some of these fish have weighed in at close to 7kg.
Umkomaas was kind to spin enthusiasts and dealt a few kingfish out to anglers fishing in tough conditions. Kingfisher Anchovy spoons have received a ton of praise for these catches. Many anglers are looking to throw spoons heavier than 45g, mainly in the 50-60g range in order to attain extra distance. The rod choice plays a huge factor in this is many rods which are only rated to 45g will not cope with these weights. An option such as the Daiwa Exceler Saltwater 10'6" 3 piece will handle just about any spoon available for surf spin fishermen and has the pulling power for those stubborn fish. Handling any spoon from around 30g up to 80g perfectly, it is also the most versatile option available for the angler who does not want to carry two or three rods to the ocean.
Scottburgh Point saw some good action over the weekend, with grey sharks, honeycomb rays and sandsharks coming out in full force.

Further south in the Transkei, shark fishing has been a dream with multiple catches being reported all week long, ranging from gully to hammerhead to grey sharks and everything in between. These fish have been fairly large and heavy tackle is advised. Kite fishing has become quite popular in recent months and with the correct wind, can be devastatingly productive.
