The Kingfisher was established in 1996 having acquired the fishing division from an old household name Kings Sports, known to generations of sportsmen and fishing enthusiasts alike.
Our core business is wholesaling fishing tackle to all Retail stores throughout Southern Africa. Our product range is largely imported from all corners of the globe anchored by our exclusive distribution rights of the famous brand of Daiwa rods and reels. Besides other popular international brands under the umbrella we have also developed very successful private labels under the Kingfisher brand. There are also a number of local manufacturers who rely on our infrastructure to market their wares.
We’re very proud of our Retail stores 6 in Durban and Pietermaritzburg. Besides a wonderful array of fishing tackle catering for all, we have included stunning displays of Diving gear, Outdoor clothing and shoes. Visit a store today!
I know im a bit late bit learning how to slide now, must u slide the shad all the way to the bottom of the trace or just till it hits the water and let it swim to the end?
My grandfather use to sardines for bass and pike and catfish and it worked for him.i never thought about it much so I figure why not try something diffent yes catfish pike steelhead fish will hit on diffent times worms and maggots even chicken liver plus lures insect bugs u can buy at sporting stores u can put on lure or hook .catfish use sense of smell find food to eat so maybe why sardines worked for my grandfather back in day because nasty smell off there fins .
chapstick. it seats a knot better thank anything else I tried. apply sufficient onto your lips before you start with the knot and use your lips to apply it to the knot before you synch the knot. it seats the knot Best.
Have turned to using Circle hooks for quite a bit of my beach fishing recently, and attaching my hooks with a perfection loop knot, so the hook has plenty of mobility👍
Have been using similar to these dangles (plain ones without the floats) on my rigs here in the UK during the last 2 summers now. Use them on a pulley rig for smoothhound baited with peeler crab, as the baits are only small so dont need the weight in line with them. And a dingle dangle rig for bass and skate using bigger baits, it works an absolute treat. Nice short fat juicy mackerel squid and herring baits, and have only had a few missed bites. Am going to try a floating one for bass, never thought of that tbh.
Love it very nice explenation. Me and my boet are out in Wa Perth. We are boytjies from SA. Man are we giving these Ausies carrots here on fishing. Caught in 2 days 2 Amberjacks and 2 Samsons between 20 and 30kg,s
I caught one yesterday. Is it a duckbill or Bat Ray or are they the same thing? This thing was powerful. It just kept going. It was about 1.5 in length. Snout to tail
