South African Freshwater And Saltwater Fish Information And Photographs; Great Pictures!

Spotted Gully Shark

Many fisherman in South Africa photograph their catches these days and it has become quite popular for a fisherman to carry a camera in his/her tackle box on their fishing trip. Getting a photo of that prize fish before you release it is a great sense of achievement because not only are you ensure that the fish will survive but you have an image that will back up your memory for the years to come. Since I started fishing a long time ago I have always carried a camera with me.

I am a keen fisherman myself and I really enjoy fly fishing and I have caught many of these saltwater and freshwater species on fly and bait, the likes of Rainbow Trout and Kob come to mind. When I catch a fish I always try to get a good photo for the benefit of all you wildlife lovers and fisherman. Fly fishing is a great way to enjoy nature, other fishing types and methods such as rock and surf, bank angling, light tackle boat fishing, deep sea fishing and lure fishing are also a great way to keep in touch with nature. Here are all the Fish species I have caught on camera or photographed...
