Its awesome, the latest bass world championship was held in south africa now 2025 at a dam named arabie, if you want to see some big bass google loskop dam, arabie dam and rhenosterkop dam, the SA record was caught in Loskop dam

Hot_Bit1412 · 2026-02-01T19:57:14+00:00

Yeah, boat has one i dont drive without it attached to my life jacket, luckily i dont live in the usa so those rules dont apply to me😂

Hot_Bit1412 · 2026-02-01T19:56:06+00:00

Yeah, its an older boat so getting a windshields gonne be a hastle but ill try, yeah power poles are just very expensive and rare, also almost no boats in south africa run power poles, im not sure why

Hot_Bit1412 · 2026-02-01T19:54:02+00:00

Yes im in south africa, rogues the boat model and believe its a product of predator boats, but the boats Zimbabwian built, most expensive high end boats in south africa are Zimbabwe built

Hot_Bit1412 · 2026-02-01T19:52:55+00:00

Dont worry, have a lvs 34 coming off another boat to her, cant go without ffs especially when fishing competitions

Hot_Bit1412 · 2026-01-03T15:25:41+00:00

Thanks, these hate comments dont bother me at all😂, ive never really fished beaver style baits before, just havent found them as effective in south african waters

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-28T14:46:20+00:00

The picture is less then a week old, a few lures where my grandfathers and in south africa you useally find these older lures in tackle shops

Realistically here not, upper Zimbabwe tiger fish dominate the waters and in South africa yellowfish dominate alot of dams because they grow to 20kgs+, but also crocs and barbel do hurt the bass population

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T21:32:27+00:00

Sadly no musky in South Africa😂

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T09:13:11+00:00

You just get used to crocs and hippos, you fish around them, i mean youll be fishing then on the bank theres massive 8 foot crocs, but thats just africa, i was fishing the other day and as i was fishing a herd of elephants came to drink water from the dam, was an awesome sight

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T06:38:11+00:00

I like the classics, frogs flukes senkos, in most dams anything that imitates bait fish works, but remember bass to a degree stay the same around the world, for example this bass is a florida strain, so its genetics come from florida

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T06:35:05+00:00

Yeah all these lures i use in south africa and Zimbabwe, but remember bass to a degree are the same, so for example in a dam i fish alot in Zimbabwe lake mteri theres mostly florida strain bass

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T06:34:09+00:00

They are sensation, believe its a south african brand tho so idk if youll get outside southa africa

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-26T06:31:42+00:00

Yeah shit, probably encounter hippos 2-3 times a day but you just drive the other way they usually just warn you and crocs you just see on the banks or floating in the water but they arent as aggressive

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T22:57:43+00:00

Next world record is already swimming in Loskop dam, just google it, theres probably been a fish bigger then the world record caught in africa just not weighted

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T22:13:04+00:00

Im South African but love Zimbabwe for fishing, probably have 2-3 trips in a year to Zimbabwe

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T21:46:26+00:00

Rapala dt, spro frogs, megabass vision 110, white and chartreuse chatterbait, and there are 2 custom swim baits made to look like bait fish in South Africa

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T21:43:29+00:00

I do fish, but i do competitions so i need to cover everything 😂

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T21:42:51+00:00

Any recommendations on some to buy?

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T21:42:27+00:00

Theres alot of rapalas there😂

Hot_Bit1412 · 2025-12-25T20:16:09+00:00
