Spring on the KZN south coast: video and gallery

Spring on the KZN south coast: video and gallery

A 2 minute montage of how the finally friendly spring weather works on the KZN South Coast of South Africa. The water along the entire coastline has also cleaned up to “crystal palace” grading and some great catches are being made. Spearos are ecstatic and can be walking around with that dozy grin, in the afternoons. Garrick have made an appearance, alongside the kob…today many anglers could be seen fishing off the Sandspit, the famous rock and surf angling beach in front of the Port Shepstone Country Club.

The accompanying video centres on surfing mainly, as visiting Ozzie Captain. Gallop, Tyler Howard, Ryan Poisson, Raymond Mantis and Shonalanga enjoy a fun early  morning surf at Hibberdene.

The video (and gallery below) also shows an egret feasting on the remains of mullet in the Banana Beach lagoon…where the Pistia invasion is still well underway and the once functioning estuary is under serious siege. More on that here

Gallery from today around the place…
