Here is a video of some the Yellow Fish I caught on artificial lures in the Orange river, Richtersveld. I mainly used Salmo Rattlin’ Hornet 4.5cm crankbaits, but also had success on the 5.5cm sizes off camera.
Both. I use the sinking when I need the lure to get to the bottom when the stream is fast flowing or when I need the lure to dive into the strike zone quickly after hitting the water.
@@louiskriel2986 no, I use the floating by default. It really depends on the exact conditions and what I need to do to catch fish. Adapt your approach until you get success and don't limit your options based of theoretical scenarios. You need floating and sinking hornets. You will likely use the floating more often, but you need both.
It’s in the middle of the Richtersveld and the easiest way is to travel down the river by canoe. There’s a few places accessible by 4x4, but for fishing it is best to travel by canoe or inflatable boat.
I have no idea what you mean with technique, I just cast a lure upstream into the water and retrieve it slowly while hoping for some random fish to eat the lure.

Such a awesome video, what time of the year was this ?
Thanks. It was early January.
Great fish. Are you using floating or sinking Hornets
Both. I use the sinking when I need the lure to get to the bottom when the stream is fast flowing or when I need the lure to dive into the strike zone quickly after hitting the water.
@@Worsdier Thank you for the feedback. Will you thus use floating only for still water fishing.

@@Worsdier Okay thank you. Appreciated 👍
@@louiskriel2986 I forgot to mention that the sinking hornet cast better in windy conditions when you still need a small lure.
fantastic! could i ask you what size and type of line you used?
In this video I used Fins Braid, but they lie about the diameter and it's too thick. I use Berkley Black Velvet 20lb now.
never mind, i see you used 15lb braid with 10lb fluro leader! thanks
Where is this spot on the orange? Like how do you get to this area... by canoe or which is the nearest town you drove to?

What technique was used ?
