Yellowfish, Vaal River



So we finally got to Vaal river, thanks to Murray Pedder from Fly Fishers Unlimited.
We planned it for a couple of trips, but the weather was not right until this time.
The weather was perfect and we got to the river around 07:00 in the morning.
First casts just below the rapid brought a small Yellow.
The river is just beautiful, with monitor lizards jumping here and there to the water.
Murray took Ella to deeper part, and they have caught some very good size Mudfish.
More upstream they had a good Yellowfish.
We had some outstanding fishing throughout the day.
The largest Yellow was 2 kg.
