Hey everyone! I found this website yesterday and I have already learned so many valuable tips and tricks. You can expect me to be posting in many questions and I hope you guys can answer some of them (I'm sure you can).. lol. Bass Fishing is tough here in South Africa, and you have to work really hard to get a decent sized bass.. (or a bass!) and thats just what im going to do tomorrow when i go fishing

Thanx for all your help so far!

Well, they are sort of like carp, but abit different. They readily take crankbaits and small inline spinners etc. You get the largemouth yellowfish and the smallmouth yellowfish. I personally don't fish for them, but they are a prime target for our fly fisherman here.
