Hi Joe how is it going? I have watched all of your fishing videos and love it! But have a few questions I go almost every weekend fishing for sharptooth catfish but I have tried alot of different baits like chicken liver, chicken hart, taliapia head all sort of baits but the only bait that really work is live platannas with a feeding spot that I made with sweet corn, bully beef, koi pellets, turtel sticks, matrix suase, tuna(drained) and they love it but it is the only bait that really works tailpai works but only sometimes not all the time. Can jou maby give me tips pleas!
Very beautiful route indeed, although not the most scenic in the world or even SA. In fact, it's only the 3rd most scenic drive in the Western Cape, after 1. Chapman's Peak Drive and 2. The Garden Route. Nevertheless, it's a spectacular route, of which you've shared some wonderful images!
Bly om te sien Clarence Drive is weer oop! Ek het dit dystyds baie met die fiets gery, maar verlede jaar toe ons SA besoek het, was dit toe. Hoop dit bly oop vir die jaar se besoek! Dankie v.d. uitstekende video!
You have a very artistic eye Joe, I guess over the years you’ve honed your skill, so not just clicking at anything! Digital must be great now for you too! This is a very interesting video you’ve put together, thank you. Cheers from me in PE a now ex Gauteng 😀
Joe’s CAMERA … that’s all I can say … 🔥 … 2 years later i am watching this again and appreciate the choice of views and the QUALITY pictures … I am based in Ficksburg and can only see the mountains from afar ..
The King Protea is definitely South Africa's national flower!! As far as my knowledge stretches the Strelizia is more a garden flower, named after the Countess von Strelitz!!
Absolutely stunning documentary on the African Sharptooth Catfish! I've never seen anything quite like it, with such detailed and meticulous information about these monstrous fish. My interest in this species stems from a lifelong passion for fish and an extensive knowledge of fish species worldwide. However, ever since Clarias gariepinus, commonly known as the African Sharptooth Catfish, was introduced to India, it has wreaked havoc on almost all our rivers and reservoirs. The story began with India's Blue Revolution, where numerous fish species were imported for farming. This particular species found Indian waters incredibly hospitable, preying on almost every aquatic creature it encountered. Unfortunately, there are no natural predators for this beast in India. As a result, stringent bans have been placed on this fish for the past decade, but the damage was already done. It has now dominated Indian rivers and reservoirs to such an extent that it has become almost impossible to spot other species. Moreover, no one wants to catch and eat them because they are considered 'trash fish,' consuming everything from carcasses to toxic waste from factories. These catfish also have the astonishing ability to walk on land and breathe out of water, further increasing their invasive potential. In India, these catfish have grown to enormous sizes and are found in large numbers, making them relatively easy to catch. This documentary brilliantly captures their impact and I welcome you to india to see the impact of these monstrous creatures in our ecosystem ! 👍
The rods they make today is so good you dont need a specific catfish rod. I use my tuna sticks and when casting distances are the order you need the longer ones if you dont have a boat. I have a catrod spare if you want to buy it over
Mooi babers gevang gents, eks van Upington, nou wel in PTA, mis die oranje rivier baie. Lekker vis vang. Ek wil so groot baber vang om te eet, baie lekker en min gratte.
Sharptooth catfish are always interesting, Walking Catfish in general are always interesting, you guys have interesting fish species in Southern Africa.
What an amazing educational video you have compiled here and I thank you for sharing and posting this. I can sense your passion throughout and this is simply done in a most incredible manner. Wishing some more great adventures. Take care and God Bless. 💖💥😊
@@JoesCamera yes time to visit Cape Town again… maybe in October as I am planning to go to Mana pools again in September for 4weeks to do more wildlife photography ! Well that’s my plan anyway , god willing ! Stay well Joe !
As always Joe you always put a great deal of passion and effort into your videos , as a Rhodesian I have visited South Africa since a child , I continue to visit Cape Town twice a year if possible but at least every year . I photographed much of False bay and Cape Town . No country is without its problems and each country has crime . I now live in Australia , here everything works and we have everything we need to live normally, some say it’s the land of milk and honey, but it’s not without its problems ,murders and crime . But one thing we don’t have is corruption . The one positive among many . But I love the culture of South Africa and Zimbabwe . The food and restaurants are the finest you will find compared to any first world country . Stay well Joe , best wishes …. Ross
hi Ross. its true its getting tough but man its beautiful. would like to do the desert areas and some fishing over there. they look after the environment
@ wolfredpaulse-, which country has no crime or murder. In other countries they don't report these crimes. In SA we publish the statistics every year, which other country does? In US there are mass shootings everywhere, we have no reports of how many die from these shootings. In Africa, nobody reports about crime and murder, only SA does!
