Fishermen may have to wait a little longer for sardine run

Sardine fever might be heating up along the KwaZulu-Natal coast ahead of the annual sardine run, but it seems that eager fishermen and residents might have to wait a while longer.KwaZulu-Natal's Sharks Board revealed after a surveillance flight yesterday that, while there were large pockets of bait fish - including an almost uninterrupted 20km stretch from Port St Johns to the Mbashe River in the former Transkei - it was not clear that they were sardines.
