Always enjoyed estuary fishing. Most of the time you could hide from the wind.

[@FishingEasternCapeSA]

That's very true. Especially on Gonubie river with all the cliffs. Always find a sheltered spot.

Great to see the life back I the local river!! 🐟 Great video 👍

[@FishingEasternCapeSA]

Thanks bru. Honestly the river is not better after the rains. This footage was taken just before the rains in December. The rains actually brought down more silt, most of our rivers are similar to how they were. Very shallow and no real channels. We need serious floods!

Motivating me to patch up my canoe, need to get out there again. Need a break from school! Kowie river won't disappoint.

where is a nice spot i can fish with lures from the side along the gonubie river targeting garrick and kob?

[@FishingEasternCapeSA]

Many spots but lure fishing is often better to drift and move along on a kayak or boat trying different spots. Standing on the bank you often cant get into the correct zone and you cover less ground. It can work but its just not as successful.
