- Solo Kayak Fishing one of my favorite spots.
Many more videos to come! Watch this space, the fish just keep getting bigger and bigger!
PLEASE PRACTICE CATCH AND RELEASE!
Great video! Eastern Cape has some very productive estuaries that really need to be protected from pollution and overfishing. Don't keep more fish than you can eat in a day. Resources like this should be well managed and preserved for many generations to come. ❤
Very true bud. I take it even further and release everything. I never keep fish. If everyone released, imagine how good the fishing would be 😁
Wow Gregg that was a most amazing session you had. Sadly here in Durban we don’t have any rivers that are clean and still productive. Congratulations on your catches super catches dreams.
Thats bud. Its sad that the Durban rivers are so polluted. Many of Ours as also bad in East London area. Overfishing is also a huge problem so fishing is getting harder and harder these days 😢
Yes, I agree...too much pollution and sewage!😢
Lol the man don't want to give the spot😅
The amount of proper fish you catch and have caught is actually crazy, bru! Amazing drag sounds going all the time. 😂
Was it all on live mullet?
Some lovely fish 😮
Nice video bro if you can will you please show me how to make a trace line that what lines and hook you use for the live bait thanks bro
Wow well done
The shad was ginormous!
awesome
Some great fights there. Well done on all the releases - that’s the only way we should fish
Solid session
Solid session but im pretty sure i lost my pb grunter there 😅 Two of those grunter i lost were massive. We did land some really nice ones which ill show in future videos. Biggest was 79cm if i recall correctly, but im convinced those two i lost where even bigger.
@@FishingEasternCapeSA those looked like proper fish.
9:09 aah how I wish I could catch as many different species in one day😢😂😂 awesome video👌💯
That river is peaceful ✌️
Epic session💯 you so blessed to be able to fish and catch multiple species that are most are good as trophie fish💪🔥 ohya i noticed with grunter alot of them come off with circle hooks or short shank hooks, i think the best all around hook is a mustard needle point, but i think a daichi needle point is also tops, you wont loose alot of fish especially grunters, i know u like releasing your fish but if they hooked abit deep can just cut the hook of since they are very thin gauge hooks and will rust quick i guess👍
You are correct brother. 100% blessed.
And its correct what you say about hooks. I do really try to not let the fish swallow. I used different baits and different sizes of circles and J hooks. But the tricky thing at this spot was that while fishing for grunter i would loose big kob if i didn't use the correct hooks. First big 15kg kob there i caught on a 3/0 circle and sandprawn so I got lucky. I ended up settling with 5/0 J hooks for the best all round results. You will see in future videos. I have tons of more footage ill release in future. We really got some real monsters there. This video was only the start of it all. Ill take a few years to release all the footage.
If want to hear the sound of a screaming drag I just watch one of these episodes hahah
Excellent catches.. can you show what trace you used and bait..looking forward to future video's. Tight lines buddy😊
I need to show more of that in future videos. At this early stage fishing here i was using a tri-swivel, a one ounce sinker and a suitability sized circle hook with mullet or pilchard. This was a very odd, trace especially for a blind river. I did this because there was so much weed there and i needed the bait to sit dead still else it got completely smothered in weed. Sandprawn I didn't use any sinker. Just a circle hook. But tried to keep the sandprawn on the sand bank away from the weed. Wait for future videos i have amazing footage stored. This little river produced some incredible fish.
@GreggBurger Awesome stuff...so after watching your video, I got Googling and started checking some resorts in EC. I'm excited to say I'm gonna be there in Aug trying my luck...Thanks
Footage is unfortunately old. Don't hold your breath. Eastern Cape fishing is not what it used to be
Thanks..you know the saying..A bad day of fishing beats a good day at work 😂
@@chrisfx4212 very true. Over fishing is a big problem. We really have to work very hard to get good fish these days.
All fish caught on pilchard?
Mullet, sandprawn and pillies.
Were is this is place
Hi Gregg was this recent as in this year after the river broke open or last year ? Great session there.
Hi. No its old footage which i held on to for years. I have only released now because the river opened and the fish are gone. I wanted to protect the fish so i kept it secret. Plenty more amazing footage to come in future. We really got some monsters there.
Hi buddy what bait you have been using because it seems as if you cathing grunter and mullets on it
Pilchard, prawn and mullet. First big kob was caught on sandprawn. Big mullet was caught on pilchard. Grunter on sandprawn and pilchard.
