Transkei fishing well

Transkei fishing well

There is not much better fun than fishing Transkei waters.

When the weather allows,..of course.

Brian and Marc Lange, and Karl Gous – the bottomfishing A-team, were lucky enough to be down that way, at Mgazana, the last few days. They jacked “Raffles”, Dr Hulleys legendary Acecraft and came back with some great photos…

It’s not easy to get out and into these waters to fish – the Transkei is not called The Wild Coast for nothing! Strong currents and wild weather combine with huge swells to make this area quite foreboding, for any craft.

But the good boat Raffles was built for these conditions and the narrow river mouth launch.

More pics to follow…
