Boskop Dam outside Potchefstroom, 14-15 December 2013

We met up with some friends at Boskop dam. When we got there, our friends were already fishing(trying to fish). There are a lot of water grass in the dam. This is ideal for bass angling and targeting tilapia which are quite abundant along the shore in the thick grass/reeds.

Needless to say, not a lot of catching of carp or barbel was done. We did have a great time braaiing and catching up with our friends and planning our next fishing trip.

I also had a chance to take some awesome photos as the place is home to lots of wild birds, animals and nature in general. Some pictures to follow.



The water is very clear!

Jaco must have caught hundreds of these... Kept him quite busy!

Koos with a very highly prized carp. Good work!

The moon kept watch over us.

Early morning just before sunrise.




Some local wild life early morning during sunrise.

Awesome to experience such a beautiful sunrise.
