  • When fishing the Transkei or Wild Coast one of the main species you catch while fishing is Shad. Fishing for Shad can be really exciting especially when there is a big shoal of Shad around. I had some great Shad fishing in the Transkei. I hope you enjoy this Wild Coast shad fishing in the Eastern Cape, South Africa.

    How many of you use single hooks on your lures?

    • @craiggriffin341
      @craiggriffin341 2 роки тому +3

      for certain species i'll go a single, especially if you want to release. I find using a stinger string instead of split rings and swivels with a single hook works better, always hooked in the corner of the mouth. trebles for shad and katonkel

    What rod and reel are you using?

    • @AlfiesFishingAdventures
      @AlfiesFishingAdventures  Рік тому

      In terms of rods my light tackle rod is a Diawa excellor and the heavy is an Assasin Spin XH. I'd recommend a reel with a good drag that matches each rod. 30lb braid on the light 50lb on the heavy. I hope that helps.
