FOSAF FLYFISHING REPORTS - Yellowfish - Lower Vaal & Orange

I have out been out fishing for some time because it is hunting season, but I have been keeping an eye on the rivers. For some unknown reason the Riet at Ritchie is still very discoloured which is unusual for this time of year. The Orange below VDK in the Hopetown area is also not as clear as it should be. The Vaal at Barkly West and Windsorton is clear enough, but the smallmouth have retreated into the deepest water and I guess it is the time one should be looking for largemouths. However, I will be back on the water by August at will let you know how I fare.
