KZN Gears Up for a Big Fish - KZN REPORT (28 AUGUST '25)

Anglers, it’s time to make space in the diary — the fishing has switched on across the province. From Margate up to Durban and beyond, reports are showing steady action with plenty of variety on offer.
Offshore: Snoek and couta are feeding well, keeping ski-boats busy and rods bending.
Surf & Rocks: Grunter and garrick are being landed regularly, while the South Coast is producing kingfish, brusher, shad, and the occasional sandbar shark.
Inland & North Coast: Fly anglers in the Midlands are finding some good trout, and there are pockets of edibles showing further north.
This week’s Strike Zones pulls it all together — with updates straight from the surf, rocks, rivers, and reefs.
The takeaway? The fish are active, the conditions are improving, and the season is shaping up nicely. Tight lines to everyone heading out this weekend! Vinesh's website
