Pilchard Park Off


The Sardines run, but down in the Cape, the Pilchards just park off, herded into the shallows by fat seals - and whatever larger fish are out there. Two weeks ago we could see the waves sparkling at night with lumo green plankton, being the forerunner of what we've got now. Surfers are wading through the schools to get their waves, but I'm keeping out of the food chain for the moment - bit too much activity for me.
From Hout Bay to Kommetjie, the bait balls are hanging out and the feeding frenzy continues - we've got our kreef bait stock for the season in a single throw of the net!
