27th of April 2025
And it’s the final day of the Durban Skiboat Club
Festival competition
Durban Each year very cool event
I’ve fished it a few times
I never came anywhere
anyway first prize over half a million
not exactly sure of the details
but I’ll put them on the screen here when I find them
cool hey
so who’s gonna win well
I don’t know because I put this video together now
and we’ll get the results later
and then I’ll stick them in
and then we’ll publish the video
then you’ll know who won so in the meantime
all I got for you is day 1
beautiful Natal winter unbelievable conditions
just pure off shores blowing
just the most beautiful scene
thank you Adam Kamdar
for capturing this so nicely and creatively l
like you did anyway
the only challenge was really the water
tainted with that runoff from the floods
from the days before little bit of brown going in there
all manners of other things too
but the brown is the problem
but some boats took up the challenge
and found the water and they found a fish
some big fish weighed well
I saw one particularly nice fish
alright day 2 today wow
Natal in winter
you just can’t beat it when it plays the game
we’re not quite in winter yet
but April’s always got a bad reputation for rain
don’t plan your holidays in April
go in may rather May is the best month around here
but yeah day 2
equally lush and once again
Adam captured the the
the scene so beautifully from his vantage point
but now we wait until this afternoon or this evening
whenever it is when they announce the winner
then I’ll put the winner’s name in here
and hopefully a picture and we will have the results
in the meantime thanks for watching
Ahah and the winner is…
