[Justin]

Hi, I a mving up to Phalaborwa soon and was wondering if there was any decent fishing up there? I have a boat too. Can one take it on the olifants river perhaps?

HI,
Welcome to Sealine
Please update your town and location in your profile.
Spent a couple of years fishing in the phalaborwa area.
Boating is going to be a tough one - nothing close tho Phalaborwa - Tzaneen and hoedspruit have the odd place.
Good fishing in the letaba/Selati and oliphants river in and around Phalaborwa

Hi Guys this thread is 12 years old but I thought I will put out some bait anyway. Any updates on Phalaborwa fishing? Moved here about 3 months ago.
