Flyfishing report: Saltwater - Border

Dean reports that not much has changed over the last month. The local estuaries closest to East London are still chocolate coloured but possibly Gonubie and the Kwelera estuaries which are further up the coast and eastwards are a bit clearer. Despite this he is still confident that as we enter November conditions will improve and it will be a good summer season.

In the meantime, many local flyfishers are travelling inland to visit the trout dams of the Eastern Cape which are in superb condition after the excellent rains but if one waits any longer these stilwaters will become too warm for productive angling.
