Beats 4 & 5

Cathedral Beat water consists of many large pockets with boulders in them. Fish are often found in the slack water around these boulders, or in the tongues of water that exit the pools.

A tandem rig consisting of larger dries and small nymphs provides the most productive method for tackling this water.

Access to Cathedral Beat can be gained via a small foot path off the N1 down to the start of the beat, about 1.5 km from the hotel parking.

The water on Amphitheatre Beat is very similar to that of Cathedral Beat. As with beat 4, access is gained via a small foot path which leads from the N1 down to the start of the beat. This beat finishes at the hotel, which marks the start of the Hotel beat.

These two beats are shorter than other beats on the Smalblaar, and are thus can easily be fished in half a day, or both beats can be booked and fished as a single stretch of river. Note both beats can only be booked if each is booked by a different member and then fished together.
