The fishing

The Vaal River frontage offers open bank angling from each chalet patio and a long man-made terrace. Carp to double figures are common, with specimen tactics and bait boats used on the far margin. Yellowfish and barbel feed close in on particles and floaties. Papgooi and specimen carp methods both work. Confirm the rules with the venue before you fish.
