Drakensberg spots

[Vlam]

I am heading to the drakensberg on the weekend, does anybody know of bass fishing spots in the Bergville area ?

I had a look on Google Earth and saw two dams, the one spioenkop and the other woodstock dam. Has anybody fished there before or any other dams in the area ?

Sterkies is legend!!!!!!!!!! But not so much for bass...there is,some people have more luck than others,I was not one of those. But the yellows are excellent!!!!!! Most fun ever.Did post a report back the first week of jan,check it out.

Thanks August, I did a trip to sterkies october last year main aim of the trip was yellows but I also managed a couple of bass.

I wont be taking my boat this trip so was hoping to find a spot where I can do some bank fishing, I see that there are a lot of small bass fishing dams at the lodges / resorts in that area.

did some fishing off the bank at the 3 dams at the resort (Dragons Peak) next to the choir school and also at the airfield close by.
lots of weed on the surface/
plastics are about the only option.
the dams are only fished during the school half term holidays.
and are not stressed.
they are walk around only.
they have some nice largies up to about 2.5 kg.
