This does not happen often. In fact, it never happens. This is a once-in-a-lifetime catch, even for my Dad!

We were considering not releasing the movie. In case it starts a surge of guys coming in from all directions. Then we thought about how close the rainy season is. Coming right around the corner are the October drizzles. Then if that fails, it will pour in November. With December to back those months up.

The rains have a marked influence on the Umzimkulu Estuarys behaviour. Firstly, the beloved halocline (where the salt and fresh water meet), is expelled out to the ocean. Then the fresh water coming down from the huge catchment area we have will dominate even the tides. When the rains let up, the tides push back in again. And the cycle repeats until all the water is fresh and brown. Barbel and perch is all we get in these conditions. The odd tarpon. Big pregnant Zambezi Sharks coming to give birth at the top past St Helens Rocks.

So it's now. This weekend. Last weekend. The weekend before. Next weekend. And a few more weekends after that, will all present a completely cooperative estuary full of fish.

We have everything you need to tackle your trophy greenspot kingfish, GT, rock salmon, kob, perch, grunter and the many other species of fish that will be flat out using the estuary right now.

It is all about lures and winning that way around. But if you are the guy who likes to just sit and stare at your rod tip, you will also have some fun.

We have accommodation (self-catering) at the Umzimkulu Marina. Where Umzximkulu Adrenalin will get you out there and in amongst the action. Were you can chuck a MYDO Lure at the fish!
