    You should try the Vaal in May on dry fly. Absolutely fantastic when those mayflies hatch, the fish go mad!

    I don't know if Trout Hunters are still around. They are situated in Krugersdorp.

    Dullstroom is always an option, but a bit far. Thinking of a quick Sunday morning session.

    Have you gone fishing? If so give us a report back.

    Judging from all the pics from last weekend. Looks like the vaal has started producing. Cant wait for the first rains, then its game on.

    Smallmouth yellow fish season on the Vaal starts picking up big time in September. No inland fishing in South Africa beats hooking into a yellow. Will be heading out in September. Anybody is welcome to join me.

    Doing a 4 day trip down the orange early September with Kalahari Outventures should be awesome, taking a 7 weight as well as hope to dedicate a session or two for some largies

    Already some big smallmouth coming out the Vaal in past week
