This is not a Bass

[gkieser]

I agree with you! (not for the first time on this thread if i'm honest)

[Jean Bence]

On or off the record?

I wish I could get the off the record list, but alas, I havent been fishing with the guys in the know for long enough to expect any "leaked" info

Andre like you say what's Flytalk without the "fun"

As screwed up as my opinions may seem at times I feel I have every right to say what I feel, same way you have the right to disagree

Absolutely old chap, I think we know each other well enough by now. And promise, i didn't call you a cnut, an ahole yes, but thats my opinion, and i'm entitled to it... no offense, but I bet i can be a bigger one than you....

[gkieser]

I am in the same boat Jean - probably 99% of river fishing i do is on the CPS waters.

I would love to see you try cos it would be some feat to be a bigger a-hole than NUR. Did i mention how he whines like a girl when he's desperate for a dump?

Perfect.... I am an ahole and you a cnut

At least I don't capsize boats....

[gkieser]

At least i'm not petrified of spiders.

[dlampert]

but in all honesty, there is now one less.

Just out of interest Grant, have you ever fished the Rondegat? Have you read up about what part of the river they have treated? Not interested in starting a war, just genuinely want to know how much people know about the things they comment on?

Jean, on or off the record, the CPS rivers are the best trout rivers available in the Western cape. There are other trout rivers, but generally speaking, not a patch on the freely available one's. There are one or two that some guys like to keep secret, but the secret really is only in the personal relationships established with certain landowners in the Boland and Cedarberg, and a few of these are worth preserving. So, rest assured unless you have access to the upper Olifants for some yellowfish, don't worry. as far as the Hex River goes, the Witvis are all but wiped out, so theres not much to talk about there. The streams near Stellenbosch, are as freely available to any intrepid soul, as the Upper Elandspad, and i would far sooner take the walk up to EP 4, or Witte 6than try and find a river where there may or may not be fish. Contact the club, and get onto the JDT if you can, alternatively, pack a backpack for a couple of days, get hold of the hiking club, and make your way up the Witels. None of these are secret. The one's that are secret, don't worry about.
