Fished the Blyde river at the beginning of the month. What a great and humbling experience to fish all alone in those canyons!
River was nice and clear at first but after the heavy rains it flooded and was mostly unfishable. Saw plenty of fish on my first try. Nothing that would pull me into the backing though.
A view of the canyon.

Got this little largescale in the lower section (below the dam).

Also caught alot of these little buggers. They look like tasty bites for tigerfish... No jokes these are quite rae and listed as vulnerable. Called barred minnows I think.

The upper section was good for river rafting, but I gave it a shot anyway.

Got this (and a few other) little smallscales. Good old faithful bloodworm...
