Blue Lagoon Garrick Report by Sean Lange and Adam Kamdar 8am 26 October 2024

Blue Lagoon Garrick Report by Sean Lange and Adam Kamdar 8am 26 October 2024: Another fun Saturday for KZN ocean users! Light winds from the south all day. Starting nice and offshore and swinging around to a gentle east angle. Not picking up at all.

Adam Kamdar is out there making the most of the cool conditions and sent in this clip before 8am! “That’s Him” fighting and boating a double-figures looking garrick out off the Blue Lagoon area.

There are many boats and oceancrafts out there looking for live bait and a chance at a tough-fighting garrick fish. Adam is going to be sending in more action clips from the water through the day. His next one is already in!

Blue Lagoon Garrick Report Two by Adam Kamdar on the water

This time it’s charter boat Simply the Best who has not one, but two garrick on the line. This video focuses mainly on the fish at the back of the boat. The cabin gets in the way of seeing the second fish being handled from the starboard bow.

Adam reports many boats out having a fun day. Weirdly enough, this is the second Saturday in a row that has panned out so nicely. Those are good statistics for this time of the year. As we expect a beast of an east to start early tomorrow and destroy the ocean in no time flat. Maybe the very early birders will get a line wet or catch a wave or two.

The divers will be getting in very early tomorrow for sure and we all look forward to the next Bear report from the Master Watermen website. There must be some clean patches somewhere up or down the coast for the okes to dive in.

Sardines n Sighting Maps

It has been a fantastic sardine run this memorable 2024. And all the action has been logged right here on The Sardine News. This year’s map has been viewed 188,000 times and keeps growing.

Which led us to decide to keep the map live. And keep adding unique marine animal sightings and events. That occurs non-stop all year round. This year we started to log more whale and dolphin sightings. And we even had a shipwreck! And a freaking tornado! And recently a capsized KZNSB boat!

These events will from now on be included in the Sardine News Sightings Map for 2024. And on the 1 January 2025, we shall start all over again.

Here are the links to existing and past Sardine Sighting Maps. Great for a windy day like today to research. With instructions to install The Sardine News right on your phone or desktop.
