North West, Brits, Klipvoor Dam
Klipvoor Dam is a public irrigation dam on the Moretele River north of Brits in the North West. The basin sits inside Borakalalo Game Reserve and is a well-known kurper and carp water with open bank access.
Klipvoor Dam holds kurper, carp, barbel, and bass. Bank anglers fish papgooi setups along the reed-lined shore. The basin is popular for overnight camping trips because the reserve surrounds the water. Catch-and-release is common on kurper. Confirm access gates, permits, and catch rules with the water authority before you visit.
Klipvoor Dam was completed in 1970 on the Moretele River about 55 km north of Brits. The Department of Water and Sanitation owns the dam for irrigation. The reservoir covers about 685 ha. The dam sits inside Borakalalo Game Reserve. This is public dam water, not a private fishing resort. Anglers camp on the banks and fish from the shore.
