Hear from our happy anglers
- Sterkfontein can be a tough and unpredictable dam — strong winds, sudden storms, and tricky fish make it a challenge, even in good conditions.
Thankfully, Reece knew exactly how to handle it. He put us onto fish right from the start and took us to spots we’d never seen before. His deep knowledge of the dam and ability to adapt to conditions made all the difference.
Even when weather turned, we always felt safe with Reece as our skipper. He checked conditions carefully and never took unnecessary risks.
We caught so many big yellowfish that I’m not even sure which one was my personal best. Beyond that, Reece was great company and taught us a lot.
We can highly recommend Reece as a skilled, professional, and reliable guide. We had an unforgettable experience.– Pierré & Werner Retief -
