11 am 18 July 2024 Rocky Bay Shad and Karanteen Report by Adam Kamdar

11 am 18 July 2024 Rocky Bay Shad and Karanteen Report by Adam Kamdar: In crystal clear water conditions, Adam updates us from the beach at Rocky Bay on the KZN South Coast.

Shad

There are the odd shad available for an argument. In the crystal water you can sometimes see them in the white water in front of the backline sandbank. In this channel is where shad like to hunt.

Karanteen

Are guaranteed at Rocky Bay today. The tasty little fish are aggressive as hell and love to eat on a fresh piece of sardine bait. They are also on the list of top live baits of all time.

Daga Salmon

If you can get a live karanteen out into the same channel as the shad were during the day, you gonna get your data salmon. They are right there, lurking just behind the shad. Who are just behind the karanteen.

Garrick

That same live karanteen will get you in trouble with a marauding garrick at this time of the year. Once again, you don’t have to cast out far. Those garrick also love to hunt in the shallows and sometimes chase the shad and things right up the beach.

They are here for the sardines too and will probably hang around waiting for them like us too.

Snoek

There is still time to get you snoek from the beach or the rocks. You need good weather with calm seas and clear water. This way you can sight fish to the snoek as they shoal past.

This clean and warm water is a huge bonus for us at the moment. We sure hope you are all appreciated this good weather. Because the windy months are coming!
