Thanks for the map Gareth 
Durban reefers
- Thread starter Mekaeel
- Start date
I'm keen if I'm free, don't know yet though. This weekend would be the better option for the tides though, 22nd is going onto neaps and the NE'er usually pumps in the afternoon.
Here are my DIY nets

Are your nets plastic. And how do you use the chaser
The majority is plastic and the bottom is netting for the water to escape.
These nets aren't made for "scooping" the fish, you need tactically position your nets and chase the fish into them. You can also use the chaser to get in the ridges and under ledges.

@Lord_Blackadder , Do you think it is worth going that weekend with neap tides?

My honest opinion… We should rather go Saturday 1 March - low is 9:56 0.14 meters
I have been diving Treasure for quite a few years and afternoon dives, as @Lord_Blackadder mentioned, is not so great in the afternoon. It's also going to be a lot higher on the 22nd - 0.74 meters. Huge difference!

Hi Gareth. 1st of March is fine with me. No point us going that weekend, and it is going to be a waste. Lets hear from the other members whats their thought.
If you're a diver then it's doable because you can dive the gulleys on neaps. Not great for puddlehoppers though (which I think the majority are?).
