This is just a short post to clear a few things up about my previous post (which name has been changed to ‘KEEP-NETS’) as in less than 24 hours i have already had a threatening comment from someone stating that they are going to well “bliksem me”. And when i think about it there is a good chance i could get more. So i felt i needed to straighten a few things out. First of all i have edited the previous post based on keepnets as i agree that my aproach could have come across a little to agressive. BUT i have edited it a little and hope that it is read carefully as i really am just wanting to know whether carp fishing is under threat from over-fishing or whether there are just too many of them anyway. But lets be honest comments like “Ek sal jou Bliksem- jou kwas”, from Sarel van Niekerk, are neither helpfull nor necessary. Dont threaten me, tell me that im either right or wrong and then why you feel that way. I do enjoy carp fishing and am just expressing my concern for the furture of the sport and anyone else who truly enjoys it should also consider the questions i asked in my previous post.

I contacted Sarel van Niekerk via e-mail and he has kindly agreed to be more productive when commenting on this topic. i hope to hear from him soon.

hi bassboat
i am really enjoying your blog, so fantastic that you are writing about this, and in particular focusing on sustaining the environment. Nice job and seriously refreshing.

Keep them articles coming, It’s great to read from other keen Bass fisherman. Especially from ones that are in a similar boat (or lack thereof!!!) that fishes from the bank.

Worry not over some threats from unknowns that you’ll probably never meet. It’s easy to post threats from behind a monitor and keyboard.

Thanks Soandso, appreciate the refreshing comment. We are making a trip to KZN next week so will hopefully have some intersting stories to post about after the Easter weekend. Feel free to post your thoughts and if you have any stories to share for us, or think of something you feel that we should be posting about please email us at thebassboat@gmail.com and we will certainly put it in. Thanks again.
