Without you, as sponsors, the club would not have achieved its goal to host a great day’s fishing. To every angler, both young and old, who came out from far and wide to support our event, a huge thank you.

The turnout shows that Umtshezi Angling Club is a force to be reckoned with and that people are ready to fish at our events.
An amazing number of 50 carp in total were caught on the day. We are proud to say that Wagendrift Dam has a good amount of fish.

First place went to Mukesh Pauchcowdi with a monster 2.030kg Golden Carp, winning him R2000.
