Western Cape, South Africa · river
Flowing through Western Cape, South Africa, Bietourivier is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Bietourivier hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Bietourivier can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.
