    The Browns are "only along the cliffs and rocky areas" and he did not fish there.

    Hi, I didn't get any browns, tan coloured naturals worked like hares ear, and the fish were very scattered.
    I think perhaps its a bit cold for the bass.

    Lakensvlei is absolutely firing. Best to get the warm gear and go. I forgot how good this time of year actually is at Larkies if you can brave the cold.

    Lakies is gonna be flippen cold tomorrow if anyone is going. On the other hand I have had my best fishing there in the snow but its pretty uncomfortable.
    An honest fisherman is a pretty uninteresting person.

    Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and not only is he hungry but broke for the rest of his life as well.

    I have had a couple of sessions, with snow falling, while we are fishing.
    As you said, flippen cold. BUT it is fun.

    Last year at Lakies, inflating the boat whilst it is snowing and doing a drift, while the snow is falling. FRESH, very FRESH
