Hello, PRWIN!

Pretty sure it's Kruger....Sunset Dam seems to ring a bell!

Think it was on the forums somewhere! :hmz:

Thats a monster and it certainly looks as if that is the area around Sunset dam and I know there are some pretty big crocs in there!

Saw on a fishing site that a small croc was caught in the Hartebeespoortdam the other day, at the De Rust venue! So much for wading into the water to cast, but especially to net the fish!

Poor crocky Anne-Marie. :cry: :cry:
I would think he can survive with part of his tail missing, but I'm not an expert! :hmz:


This fella was seen at Sunset Dam March 2011.

How inactive are crocs in winter? Want to go kayaking on St Lucia lake system after Kruger, but not quite sure!
