Weekly updates
Roodeplaat Dam is producing early-morning bass action, while Bon Accord and Rietvlei are steady in calmer windows with natural bait and slower retrieves.
Bass, Tilapia (edge structure)
Live minnows, Natural worms near cover
Spinnerbaits, Soft plastics
Best activity from first light to around 09:00. Wind picks up later, so work protected banks with slower presentations.
Carp, Barbel
Sweet dough balls, Floaties and mielie combos
Paddle-tail plastics for barbel margins, Shallow crankbaits near drop-offs
Slightly stained water this week. Fish are responding best in late afternoon with scent-heavy bait.
Carp, Bass
Plain dough with sweet additive, Worm and maize combinations
Natural-color soft plastics, Compact jerkbaits
Clearer water than nearby dams. Downsized terminal tackle and quieter bank approach improved takes.
Message us and we will suggest practical bait and tackle for your next session.
