Grootdraai Dam Fishing
Bass also occur in the Grootdraai Dam and the smaller surrounding dams, with good results on plastics and other artificial lures, as well as on platties and other small live baits. Many of the smaller dams in the area have also been stocked with trout, making the Grootdraai area perfect for a variety of species.
If you’re planning a fishing weekend, message your dates early so we can confirm the best-fit chalet size.
