FISHING TOURNAMENTS: FEBRUARY 2020
SUPER 6 LEAGUE: ROUND 3
1 FEBRUARY 2020
One of the most exciting local leagues in the country! PEDSAC’s Super 6 enters its round 3 at the start of February – there are six rounds per season, meaning the league is now midway. But, although the tournament is only open to anglers registered with PEDSAC, note that any visiting friends and guests of members can enter too. And the competition’s fierce.
Posted by Richard Donaldson on Saturday, 3 August 2019
There are simultaneous ladies and juniors classes – but everyone’s welcome to enter as seniors – and among the 30-odd species allowed (mostly bottomfish) you’re also able to go after some tuna and yellowtail. So register latest 31 January at 17:30 at the Club for this one-day event on 1 February 2020 (2 Feb reserved as bonus fishing day in case of bad weather) at PEDSAC.

TWO OCEANS MARLIN TOURNAMENT
7–14 FEBRUARY 2020
Struisbaai near L’Agulhas offers some of the Western Cape’s most fertile and biologically diverse oceans, and anglers know you get great fishing here all year round. But February is marlin time. What an awesome way to kick off the year of competitive fishing.
Two Oceans Marlin Tournament – Day 3After a short debate prior to leaving Struisbaai harbour Salti and its crew decided the 100m Contour South of the 12 Mile Bank and its abundant life would be the place to go to test our fate.Upon reaching the 100m contour all lines had been set, Woolworths breakfast served and the general banter of a day at sea had begun. And we are not talking about anything Freud, Nietzche or Einstein would have enjoyed.Well just before 08h00 our attention was brought to a 'fin' sticking out the water right behind our starboard lure/kona. Within a couple of seconds all hell broke loose. The kona was snapped up like a Friday bargain, the marlin leapt in the air twice to show his colours and swam off in the direction a passing tanker.After stripping all the nylon, approximately 300m, it decided to take some braid as well, probably another 150m or so.And so the (marlin) teasers were brought in, rods reeled in and stacked and everybody just jelled into a perfect team. All in double quick time.Jacques Van Niekerk fought the fish like an absolute star to the starboard side of the boat, Anton Steyn instigated the removal of the hooks and kona from the mouth and Jonathon Peach, our movie director, managed to capture it all on video.The rest is history.A job well done. A team I can be proud of. Well done guys you earned your bragging rights for the year to come.
Posted by Paul Van Niekerk on Monday, 20 February 2017

OWN CHOICE TUNA INTERPROVINCIAL
21–26 OCTOBER 2019
Happening at the same time and place (Cape Boat and Ski-Boat) as the Rumbly Bay tuna comp, the Own Choice Interprovincial is the official SADSAA tuna fishing side, meaning it’s for the amateur anglers who have (or are gunning for) provincial and national colours. It’s much more stringent rules and precise fishing – usually pulling out massive tuna with nothing but a 10kg line, so it’s naturally spectacular to see these guys in action.

12 X 12 SPECIES
25–27 OCTOBER 2019
One of SA’s most conservation-minded game fish competitions: 12 species are nominated and each team is only allowed to catch and weigh-in five specimens of each species. The idea is that limiting the number of catches minimises the competition’s impact on fish populations, good for conservation. Check out the 12 x 12 Species at St Lucia Ski-Boat Club.
