Transkei Sardine Report 2017: The calm before the storm

Transkei Sardine Report 2017: The calm before the storm – which is what does usually happen, before the sards pitch up.

Port Shepstone High School rugby star and pro fishing guide Mannie Gereiro is deep down the Wild Coast and reports good news in that the estuaries are fishing well. He is at Mgazana and will report the first sightings or action in to us.

The humpback whales have also arrived in full force, even up into Mozambique.

But at this point it’s all about the congregating birds and dolphins – and of course the plentiful other predators lying in ambush.

We also have spies at Mdumbi (pictured at left), and Offshore Africa in Port St. Johns are out there almost every day on their boats. If you would like to get really into the midst of the action, check them out at http://offshoreportstjohns.com or http://divingwithsharks.co.za
