Great response Guys...I see so many guys have fished for largescales recently.
No matter anyway...with the rain the whole day, never went!!
Hi Guys
Has anyone fished the Blaauwbankspruit quite recently? I'm thinking of doing a trip there tomorrow, want to know if any specific patterns have worked or tecniques. I have a bunch of patterns that work for me, but there are occasions that you get there and nothing works except something you didn't tie up! (Tiny lime green san juans come to mind...)
Cheers
Mike

The kids and I drove past the river this morning on our way to Maropeng. The river was in full flood.
How does a person gey there? How is the fishing in general?
On that stream and further down, a GRHE variation less the GR, add black thread ribbing, with FB or without have always been my GO-TO fly when nothing else grafts.
It matches what's in the water and there are FAT cream caddis there that always seem to get a nibble.

I havn't fished that river since mid 1980s hence my lack of reply - I know my mate has a trout hatchery there now along with all the other 'developments'!

Where exactly do you guys access the Blaauwbankspruit?
Why doesn't anyone want to tell us where we may fish and how to get there? I know where the Blaauwbank is but not where I may fish. I have been practicing catch and release for 15 years and am highly conservation minded so why dont you want to tell us? If you dont want to place it on a public forum pm me the details. Thanks. I live 20 min from that area and am dieing for a new area to fish.
