The weekend that was

The weekend that was

It was about this time last year that the famous prawn walk happened in the Garden Route, so it was time I headed up to check. ย Funny enough I even bumped into Ian, both of us severely disappointed by what hadn’t happened.

I spent Saturdayย on Goukamma and Sedgefield. ย Both were absolutely littered with fish. ย Luckily I was on the SUPfisher, otherwise I wouldn’t have known. ย They were all just sitting in the channels, high up in the water column. ย It gave me the sense that the spawn hadn’t yet happened, and that these fish were preparing to go out to sea.

So there I was, drifting in front of decent size Kob and Grunter, trying to drop all sorts of flies on their noses. ย They were not interested, at all. ย Even the bait fisherman on the banks eventually packed up and left, not knowing what I was up to and seeing.

It will all happen, but not yet.
