finally

well finally got a fish worth writing about
I landed a 8.5kg silver first decent one in almost two years
I shot him pretty well at first I thought it was bigger than the 12kg one but when i was back on the beach i could see it was smaller, but it had a large head.

New Kit

Well its been a while not much diving around
the Border open was held last weekend
some nice fish came out nothing over 10kgs but nice fish
and a few days before guys from natal got a great sail fish in 12m of water.
Well done

I recently bought the Rob Allen wet suit and the Sperrie Carbon Blades cant wait to use them.
lets all pray for some clean water.
happy diving

Finally

Yea i finnaly after month got a small dive in. Sadly no fish water a bit cold but a great swim

Boat dive

Well finally Tony Swart laynched his boat and Johan Stone and my self were crew.
Johan jumped in first and got a little black about 5kg then his next down came up with a grey bankkie about 6kg and it was about 3 fish later he got another of about 8kg really good fish , Tony got some fish me i had flipping snius and only managed to get to the 16 meter mark twice before i started to hurt.
viz was not too bad but shallow was puffy.

At Last

Well finally good weather. Managed to get a dive in today spent about 3 hrs in the water not a lot of fish saw a Shad about 3kgs and about 5 small Silver Steenbrass about 3kgs.
loads of Dolphins and 3 large Bronze whaler sharks.
Water had a bad tinge of yellow not much viz, managed to get a Zebra fish gutted about 2kgs.
nothing great  but great to be back in the water.

 

Diving

Well we've had rain, rain, rain, wind,big swell, wind and now the sea does not know what to do.
Some poor soles feom Cape Town have come up to the Hole in the wall, but i am sure all they have done is test their drinking fitness.
Talking of the Hole (HITW) i was there wat the end of April with Tony Swart ,Adrian Barichievy and Marin Victor the first day was kaak (very bad) zero viz, day two we stoped behind the hole saw some small Kob Adrian saw some small kingies, but nothing shot,
We then got to Bolompo point, my turn to buggie tony got got a nice spottie, then we moved down to Xhora mouth found some clean water and Adrian got a nice 6 kg Cat Face Rock Cod.
On the way back we jumped in again at Bolompo point and i got a 7 kg Garrick and Tony two of about 3kg.
The next day Martin jined us and yes he got an awesome 17.2 kg Black Steenbrass.
We dived some crays after we beached the boat a battle but found a few and Tony sticking his hands were they are not wanted got zaped by a Morey Eel.
That was the trip. I hope the boys from Cape Town do better.
cheers for now
