We have called it "Fishbook". It is completely integrated to FishingCorner, but also uses some of your facebook information. New members can now log in to Fishing Corner using their facebook username and password and a FishingCorner account will automatically be created for them. Existing Fishing Corner members can link their Fishing Corner profile to their Facebook profile. It has been great seeing the guys getting involved, updating their photos, changing their profiles and getting hooked up! This is a great tool for you to network your business, or to keep in touch with your friends. Not only have we received interest from South African Anglers, but I have seen some oversees anglers taking interest aswell. So log on and get involved!
Server Upgrade Fishing Corner has been a little slow the last while, and we have received some complaints that it has been taking a while to do things. The good News ? we have updated the server and Fishing Corner will now run lightning fast, so no more waiting! We have our own server now so can offer you website and email hosting at competitive rates. Call Shaun for more information. Problems uploading Photos We have also had complaints about not being able to update photos and the reason for this has been out-updated web browsers. If you would like to upload your photos, please make sure that you update your web browser or download firefox or Google Chrome which is the latest lightweight browser and works very well, especially if having problems clicking the buttons in Fish-book. I started using it and it sorted out all of my fishbook problems. Fishing News Unfortunately the sardines have not arrived this year, but there are still some good fish around. On my last few dives, I have seen some great shoals of garrick, and some huge salmon have been coming out, recently one of 45kg and 43kg. If you find the shoals of snoek - you are in for some serious action. I have also heard of some great cuta still around and everyone who has the patience to wait around has been rewarded with some great fish. Check out the gallery ? take a look at the 30 plus kg fish! In true July fashion, fishing is one of those hit and miss occasions, when you hit it, you hit it hard and when you miss you come home empty handed. The barge has been quiet and Umdloti has fallen from grace this year. The mackrel make the occasional visit to Vetchies, but sometimes can only be enticed by baiting your yozuris. Zinkwazi has come and gone as the latest "secret spot", I saw the ESA guys releasing lots of couta there on tv last week but it seems to have gone quiet now. I wonder where the next northerly secret spot is for the Durban guys with company petrol? Anyone tried Amatikulu lately? Latest Sponsor Our latest sponsor is SA Derivatives and SA Stock Brokers. Please support them (and our country) by investing any spare cash you may have in the stock market. Daniel is giving fishing corner members special broker rates, and the markets are down right now so it is an ideal time to get in. My hot tip: Buy low Sell high. Shaun Reid0828398174 |
