ALMOST LIVE! Snoek and Garrick feature in this 7am Sardine and Conditions Report 12 July 2024

ALMOST LIVE! Snoek and Garrick feature in this 7am Sardine and Conditions Report 12 July 2024: Greetings from a very sunny Maputo! We are broadcasting from Fatima’s in Maputo and the reports came in quick smart this morning.

Enjoy today’s compilation…

Conditions

Have hardly changed and this is a great time to be in or on the ocean. Everything is stable with smooth seas and that still infamous warm water hovering about 23 degrees Celsius.

Too hot for sardines but great for surfers and spearos. And fish. Fish prefer moderate-temperature waters.

Garrick

Then we cross almost live to Adam and Nigel out off Blue Lagoon in Durban. Their second office! As they tussle with a powerful garrick on light tackle just beyond the backline.

And then just as we though they were done showing off, we get a pic of a delicious Queen Mackerel aka Natal Snoek. All during the sunrise.

Shad

Eddie Bunge kindly reported in all the way down at Splash Rock in Port Edward. It’s a magical scene with the shad on the bite and that huge backdrop of spray each time a set rolls in.

Spectacular!

Sardines

However Eddie also reported that he saw no birds, dolphins or whales…and particularly, no sardines down thataway. This is not to say there are no sardines. As with every year, late and lost shoals eventually show up over and over when nobody is expecting them to.
