Winter fishing is still testing us all 🥶 Very chilly mornings...Icy winds on the water and just a little sunshine here and there made for some seriously tough fishing on Koster Dam.

Finding a limit on both days was a real grind for most of our anglers, but as always...the fishing is only one part of what makes Clearwater Bassmasters so special. The warmth of the evening fires...The laughs around the braai...Good company and plenty of stories made up for those hard days on the water🔥🍖😂
