Didn't you place 4th in that comp?

My original alter-ego did...

Sad when you place 4th by 50% of the winning weight... Confused

I saw the pics and the videos on FB - lovely fish.

And there everyone thought the SA record was going to come from KZN Smile

I thought the dam was built too big for the rain fall in the area?

The bailiff forgot to close the sluice gate

(True story - but for a different pond)

There was also a 6.3+- that came out from the same pond the day before the 7.1, no?

The place has fish which have to be seen to be believed . In fact some are so big that one's hear stops beating for a while (They look like sea fish!). But seeing them and catching them are two very different things. Was probably a bit easier a month or so ago, when females were still moving onto beds. Hopefully they will also start feeding more actively as the season progresses.
If anyone has a secret code please advise. I am willing to pay!
