Spinning Tofinho Point
Waking up in the dark in Tofinho sure beats waking in the dark in Jhb. Where I have been stationed the last month.
It’s still hard work but without the cold it’s great. And watching first light appear over the ocean is what it’s all about.
My light spinning outfit rigged with an SS Tarpon spoon was rearing to go. Moer coffee got me in the same mood and soon I was casting off The Dragon, a small jutting headland shaped like a Dragon’s head, just south of Tofo.
Water moves around this point at a rapid rate and has scoured the reef to a staunch drop off. And in the waves, backlit by the rising sun, I saw the shoal of black tip kingfish.
