Garrick season with GT Adventures

Garrick season with GT Adventures

Garrick season with GT Adventures, based on the beaches of the fish fantastic KZN North Coast – is on right now! The garrick stick around right into November, with the main bite going on right now.

It’s been consistent and spread out this year, as in there were no real days so far, where the garrick all went mad at the same time! Whenever this happens, anyone with a mullet can get a garrick. Resulting in many, many fish being taken in one day.

That’s not garrick fishing!

Stalking the channels, gulleys, points, ledges and bays…on foot with your guide, who knows every crevice. Fly rod in hand. Or spinning stick if you prefer. Matched tackle. Hundreds of hours of preparation in the bank. Releasing your fish alive and well. Now that’s garrick fishing.

And that’s how JP Bartholomew does it.

With a tremendous knowledge of literally every garrick aimed lure on the market, JP fishes with a varied and wholesome approach to these smashing fish. His first choice is always gonna be the fly rod but sometimes the spinning rig is just better for the conditions. And so the two disciplines go together real nicely. A great way to fish for the wide variety of gamefish that haunt our beautiful KZN Coastline.

GT Adventures operate mainly on the northern part of this stretch of coast. Incredible reef, clean and warm water, long beaches, points and bays – it takes an eye to choose where to fish. Local knowledge. Or you will get nowhere. GT operate with a backup system and team, so you don’t have to leave your car parked anywhere at all. Totally safe and organised.

For extended trips to secret fishing destinations, or a destination of your choice, GT Adventures assists with the pre-arrangements, and other fishing related logistics. Tackle. Anything else that GT can help with, to plan out your dream fishing holiday.
