FOSAF FLYFISHING REPORTS - Saltwater - Port Elizabeth

 Sundays river

Unfortunately, I have not heard of any report or catches.

Swartkops river

Reasonable catches of grunter and kob have been made for the last month.

Reports of skipjack catches have been filtering through as well.

Hopefully the fishing will start getting better before the winter sets in.

Gamtoos river

After last month's report of skipjack being present in the river, I fished Gamtoos river

over two weekends. Unfortunately, on both occasions the weather was bad and the fishing was poor. Reports have filtering through of 20kg plus kob being caught over the Eastern weekend. Hopefully this is a good sign for the winter months when the big kob move into the river.

Krom river

Unfortunately, I have not heard any report nor catches.

The Bay

There was a big school of skipjack tuna present in the bay.

At one point the school was so close to the shore that anglers tried to catch them from the shore. Unfortunately, very few catches were made of these tuna as they were very selective on what they were feeding.
