The Umzimkulu River is cleaning up!

The Umzimkulu River is cleaning up!

After a great time catching eel and barbel in the flood waters recently, the rains have finally slowed and the Umzimkulu River is cleaning up!

So it’s gonna be all about the rock salmon, grunter, perch, kob, flagtail and kingfish as the waters become that murky green the gamefish love to ambush in.

Looking through old albums I found a bunch of photographs of catches and scenes that never made it to be published or even be part of a story…so they have been captioned rather…
