Drop Shot Charles - Mpenjati rivermouth near Margate

After spending a brief stop over in Richards Bay fishing his old hunting grounds Charles left for some much needed R&R on the South Coast. Here he manage that not. He found a River full of fishes and took the liberty of spoiling himself with some nice Pick Handles and a few Kingies. The River Garnette was the uglies.



HABITAT: The River Gurnard is common in rivers and open water where silt has been deposited. It’s own colour blends into these surroundings. They bury themselves in the mud or sand with just their eyes sticking out so they ready to lash out at prey.
DIET: River Gurnard feed on Shrimps, Gobies, worms, small crabs and other bottom living invertebrates.
BAITS: The River Gurnard will take fish or prawn baits. Dropshot worms are also very good.
