Hi kevin
I was there in november and had some cracker jack fishing. I fished around the campsite towards the dam wall on float tube and did pick up some solid fish on streamer patterns. I was fishing in the day so didn't bother throwing a popper.
I would not recomend fishing around the campsite on weekends as the boats and ********s on jetskis seem to affect the fish. I didn't catch any fish when there were boats, but when i fished on a weekday, the fish were biting.
I would also recomend fishing down at bulshoek. There is some really good fishing there, just don't poach as the farmers get really upset! If you ask permission properly most of them don't mind. Also you can try below the dam wall, there are some good fish down there.
If you don't mind a drive on a dirt road, the fishing is also really good at the top end of the dam where the river flows in. There should be some 2kg smallies lurking in the vicinity
Just be v security conscious at that campsite, I have heard stories of people having their gear stolen at night.
Hope this helps?
Good luck, I'd really like to hear how the trip goes and hopefully see some pics of big ones......
Regards
Liam
