Water temps sitting comfy at 18-20°C around the peninsula, getting the predators fired up.Fish activity's buzzing after recent reports from local charter crews like Simon's Town operators. Galjoen are smashing it on the reefs – limits of 3-5 per angler on fresh redbait or mussels. Kob pushing inshore, with 5-10kg models nabbed on whole sardines or chokka. Yellowtail schools showing 2-8kg fish chasing the tide lines, and elf (shads) ripping through in numbers up to 20+ per session. Even some small sharks and rays on the move. Catches are up 30% from last week, thanks to that stable swell.For lures, stick to **spoons and jigs** like 40g chrome Doggies or silver Halco Twisty – rip 'em fast through the foamies for yellows and elf. Best bait? Fresh chokka strips for kob and galjoen, whole sardines drifted on the incoming for bigger stuff. Mullet fillets if you're shore-based.Hot spots tonight: **Muizenberg beach** for elf on light spinning, and **Hout Bay kelp beds** for galjoen and kob – launch early tomorrow before the breeze builds.Thanks for tuning in, boeties – subscribe for more tips!
