We had our first winter comp at Kees - Vaaldam on Saturday.

It was a challenge getting to the venue as the mist on the road made it difficult to even see the road 🫣

The comp started and it was dead quiet untill around 10:00 when the mist started lifting and our feet started defrosting 🥶.

The cold also affected the club's scale as it decided not to work when we did the weigh-in so the anglers could only get points for the amount of fish in their nets.😢

Seniors:
🥇 Chrichan De Wit (Visitor) with 5 🐟
🥈 Joshua Van Heerden aka Mr. Legends with 1 🐟

Masters:
🥇Mark Oosthuizen aka Vaskap Oosie with 3 🐟
🥈 Jacques Maria's with 1 🐟

Congrats to all the winners and also to all the anglers who tried everything to get a fish in their nets👏👏👏

We were supposed to fish Ou Plaas however the owner notified us that the venue is unfishable due to the water that has risen and the roads are flooded.

The Alberton Angling Club fished Kollege Plaas (River Side) the weekend.

The weather was lekker. Thanks to Norem, the owner, for cordoning an area off for our competition.

The Friday Social Barbel Comp was won by Juan Theron with a Barbel of 2.155 kg. Congrats Juan 👏

The fishing was difficult on Saturday with only 2 pegs weighing in however at Sundays final weigh-in things looked much better.

The highlights of the comp was Juan Theron being dunked for his PB Barbel of 7.070 kg. Congrats Juan 👏

And off course what would a comp be without something going wrong like André's Amarok on a lowbed truck due to a snapped fan belt 🫣
