Gauteng, Vanderbijlpark, Vaal River
Modini fishing resort sits on a Vaal River reach at Vaal Oewer outside Vanderbijlpark. Self-catering chalets, a swimming pool, and open bank angling suit carp, barbel, yellowfish, and bass trips.
The resort fronts the Vaal River on Potchefstroom Road at Vaal Oewer. Guests fish from open river banks in front of the chalets. Carp, barbel, yellowfish, and bass are reported on this stretch. Papgooi and light lure tackle are popular. Fly fishing is possible in season. The water is generally clear with fewer snags than many Vaal swims.
