Sundowner Adventures offers day fishing for adults & children in a safe and secure environment. This is a great way to spend time in the outdoors with social distancing. Low season (1 Oct to 14 April) is summer time and we allow bass, bait, specimen carp and fly fishing. High season (15 April to 31 Sep) is winter trout season and only fly fishing is permitted. We are eco-friendly, promoting catch and release of fish (although trout may be kept and paid for by arrangement). Sport fishing a fun adventure for individuals, couples and families.
Fly-fishing is an art and clean (no grubby bait!). It is good exercise but you don’t a high fitness level.
The fishing equipment is available for hire, however you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer. Fishing flies or lures can be bought on site.
We often have fishing monitors on duty to provide guidance on the fishing rules/regulations and to assist with ensuring you have a wonderful experience. They will provide some basic fishing tips but if you want to learn more or have never fishing before then feel free to book one of our group or private fishing lessons.
We believe in keeping the sport environmentally friendly so all fish caught must be released (And we teach guests the proper techniques required for correctly releasing the fish so that they do not get injured). The dams have Trout (Rainbow, Brown and Golden), Bass, Carp, Kurper and Cat fish.
The fishing is done on the two dams at Lanseria Country Estate. We are open for fishing seven days a week in low season and often close of Monday during high season to rest the trout after weekends.

Hi guys. In all honesty, the fishing was not good. Over crowded water (the fish have seen too many flies) and water clarity was muddy water. If you could open the 2 dams and make one big one that will be great, unless one is for smaller fish and one for bigger, however there were no signs up so I assumed that both were the same. Please don't see this as a negative review. - Henry
Started of very cold, - 4. I set one rod up and 3 casts later hooked a massive trout. The buckets next to the dam help and Thr friendly staff let you use their longer nets. Caught 5 fish in about as many casts. Was a fantastic start to the day. A well run setup. Sufficient oxygen in the dam and The fish are well looked after. - Jacques
Another great day out with my novice fly-fishing buddy Graham. Lanseria is close enough to Joburg's Northern suburbs that you can get there for sunrise, enjoy some quality trout fishing, have a lekker breakfast and get back home by midday. Graham, once again, enjoyed some beginner's luck with several decent fish and is really taking to fly fishing. He has even stopped referring to all flies as "Mepps" and now only occasionally looks for the bail arm on his reel. Would gladly recommend this venue for beginners and more experienced fly fishermen alike. - Nicholas
Enjoyed the day. Caught one nice Rainbow Hen. Had a few other knocks and lost one. Fun to fish so close to Lanseria. Next trip to Bronkhorstpruit. Thanks. - Mike
A tranquil, friendly environment to spend the day. Friendly and helpful staff. The restaurant is great and the food is delicious! Thank you for making it a memorable experience. We'll definitely be back. - Jac
