Beginner Group Fly Fishing lesson Oxbow

Bronkhorstspruit

Activity Description

Join other guests or book your own group (min of 4 fishers) for 1,5 hrs to learn the basic techniques of still water fly fishing. The fishing host will take you through the basics of setting up a fly rod, casting, selecting a fly, how to hook/fight/land a fish. Every guest will receive a short session of individual attention. No prior fly fishing experience required, however this lesson is also beneficial if you would like to improve on your existing fly fishing skills.

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 23 April) is summer time and we allow bass, bait, specimen carp and fly fishing. High season (24 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 in the catch & release dams caught must be released (And we teach guests the proper techniques required for correctly releasing the fish so that they do not get injured). Most of the dams have Trout (Rainbow, Brown and Golden) and Bass. Academy dam has, Carp, Kurper, trout and bass.

The fishing is done on the six dams at Oxbow Country Estate. We are open for fishing three days a week (Wed,Sat & Sun). Bookings for exclusive or corporate events may be booked on the other days (Mon,Tues,Thu& Fri).
