This is just a short mash-up of footage from a recent excursion to Mission Rocks located in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park, South Africa. Caught a few small Shad (Bluefish) and a few Surge Wrasse aka the poor man's parrot fish on fly during a spring low tide on 27-July-13.

Rule no. 3

Fish are where they feel good. That is where one or several factors are present: food, shelter, optimum water conditions, other fish ...and more.

Rule no. 3½

This should actually be rule number 4, but it's still a bit too vague to be so. It is based on my own and a lot of other fishers experiences, but still... Fishing is best when water is going out - and please notice, that this doesn't only refer to tidal movement.

The landing net for the coast

I often wonder what US fishers do if they stumble on a really big fish that they want to net. I'm aware that many fishers land many - if not all - of their fish with the hands. I use the hands for all but the largest. But still it must happen that fishers strike on a brown trout or rainbow is much too big for these small snow shoe nets.
