Hooked on fishing: Game fish still on the bite
Rock and surf angling has not been great over the past week or so, with anglers having to hunt around somewhat for good spots.
There were some shad caught at Station Bay and at The Block in Port Shepstone.
A few were caught off the pier at Margate. Game fishing was good, with garrick, salmon and grunter on the bite.
The sardines are still around and after the recent cold front, it looks like there may be more on the way.
Local angler, Steven Moodley, was hopeful that with more sardines potentially on the way, that fishing should be good from Thursday.
Remember, responsible fishing is keeping the shoreline as clean as possible and abiding by the bag limits.

Brace yourself for the 5-day water shutdown starting next week The maintenance on Witbank Water Treatment Works, Old Coronation Bulk Water Pipeline, Point B Reservoir, Point D Reservoir Pump Station, and Point D 5 Megalitre Reservoir has been postponed for a week.
