Two Provoked Shark Attacks, BIG West and CLEAN Water Conditions Update

Two Provoked Shark Attacks PLUS Big West Tomorrow

Two Provoked Shark Attacks, BIG West and CLEAN Water Conditions Update

Two Provoked Shark Attacks, BIG West and CLEAN Water Conditions Update: there has not been much fishing going on. Some beaches are still dotted with debris and junk. Surfing in brown water is not popular. And don’t even talk diving!

Fishing

Alan Carby went down to the Sandspit in Sheppy this morning and was greeted by magnificent fishing conditions. Blacktail and other smallies were biting, and Alan got us the cool clip featured in the video above. The ocean has recovered, and although there’s still brown water pumping out of some rivers, the Agulhas and the East winds have been collaborating in a combined effort to rid us of the ANC sewage water.

After the big wind tomorrow, Natal is gonna reveal herself in all her glory.

Surfing

Surf at your own peril! Ear ache. Teeth. Even the odd submerged tree are out to get you at this time of the year. Luckily, everything is coming right and in a short while, it’s gonna be surfing every day. After the west blows tomorrow, it’s gone be peach, peach, peach.

Diving

If you have a boat or a fast car, you can escape the gloom of the brown water conditions. In a boat, you can head out past the brown water to Aliwal or Protea. In a fast car, you can get to Sodwana quick sticks.

You can find out more about diving conditions and fish being seen at the Master Watermen website.
