Weekend Bite Mode Activated - KZN REPORT (23 OCTOBER '25)
Summer fishing has officially switched into overdrive across KwaZulu-Natal! The weather’s stabilizing, the surf’s alive, and the bite is red-hot from North to South. On the North Coast, diamonds, sandies, and honeycombs are dominating, with greys keeping the drags screaming. The Central Coast is all action, dishing out blue rays, tuna, and bottom fish, while the South Coast is seeing live bait chaos with garrick, kob, and rock hoppers all in on the fun.
Offshore, anglers have battled through wind and swell, but the rewards have been solid — couta, dorado, tuna, sailfish, and consistent bottom catches like geelbek, daga, and rockcod. When the sea settles, expect the action to fire right back up across the coast.
Inland, The Midlands are starting to come alive after recent rains. The upper Mooi and Bushman’s Rivers are running clear, producing solid trout, while stillwaters have delivered some trophy browns up to 53cm. With warmer days ahead and water conditions improving, it’s shaping up to be an epic stretch of fishing — wherever you drop a line this weekend.
