The dam is stocked with trout by the NFFC (Natal Fly Fishers Club) on an annual basis and is a fly fisherman's delight.

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
