We took a drive down to the beachfront this afternoon to get out the house a bit. We stopped on Lovers Lane and sat on a bench overlooking the sea having a picnic while the kids were running up and down on the sand. There wasn't a lot of people down on the beach as it wasn't really a warm day, but we could see a couple of fishermen on the rocks at Pollock Beach by the old Something Good…
A couple of recreational fishermen fishing off the rocks at Humewood Beach. In South Africa you need a fishing license to fish in the ocean or any public (anything not in private ownership) fresh water dams and rivers. A license can be obtained from the Port Office at a nominal fee.
When she is in a good mood Algoa Bay allows the fishermen to fish from New Brighton Pier. There is almost a festive atmosphere when they gather together on a nice day. ...................but when she is in a bad mood, you had better take heed, because she does not allow fishing.
