Catch the big one for charity on September 2
The Northern Small Craft Bass League had their eighth and final league competition of the 2023 season.
The organisers are excited to announce that they will present another competition paired with their year-end prizegiving at Klaserie Dam on September 2. “We aim to focus on charity at the Klaserie Dam competition and anglers are requested to bring nonperishable food items to distribute to local charities,” said De Bruyn.
“Everyone is welcome to join us for this event, even if you do not fish with us throughout the year. All you need is a boat or kayak smaller than 4.2m and you are set to go. Only electronic snake boat motors are allowed,” he said. The entry fee to compete is R200 and two nonperishable items for charity. The captain’s meeting starts at 06:00 and tags will be drawn as it will be a team format.

Gate fees at Klaserie Dam are R20 per vehicle, R60 per motorised boat, R20 per nonmotorised boat, R60 per adult, and R30 for children under 12 years.
