Dap Naude Dam

Dap Naude Dam

Built in 1958 on the Broederstroom River near Tzaneen in the Limpopo province, the Dap Naude Dam is maintained by the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry. The Dam has a surface area of 28 ha and when full provides the Dap Naude Dam Reservoir with 1.9 million cubic meters of water. Although a beautiful scenic area, with good fishing (Rainbow Trout), access to the dam is restricted to members of the Haenertsburg Trout Association. Fishing here is generally better from row boats as there is not much bank access (Boats are available to permit holders). There is a beautiful picnic area nearby to just stop and relax under to great old oak trees. The dam is open all year round but the best fishing is during the months of October to the end of May.
