About this listen

 Summer fishing is delivering strong action across KwaZulu-Natal, with anglers finding plenty to be excited about from the shoreline to offshore waters. Rock and surf fishing has been productive along the entire coast, with powerful inedibles dominating the North Coast, steady edible catches coming from Durban’s reliable spots, and the South Coast standing out as the top performer. Quality scratch fishing, solid shad and heavy honeycomb rays have made the southern stretches the place to be, especially for anglers using the right baits and local knowledge.
Offshore, conditions have been mixed but rewarding for those prepared to adapt. Reef fishing has produced good Englishman and John Dory, while Dorado, Snoek and Couta have been active in both shallow and deeper water, particularly where cleaner, warmer conditions are holding. Inland, stable weather has opened short windows for freshwater anglers, with trout streams slowly improving, limited stillwater returns during the heat, and Sterkfontein continuing to shine for yellowfish. With summer momentum building, fishing across KZN remains full of opportunity. Vinesh's website
