Westville’s Luke Cuthbert earned a second selection for the U16 Protea team (South African Shore Angling Association) after placing sixth in the individual competition at the Junior Nationals in Langebaan in January.
His strong effort helped KwaZulu-Natal to fifth place in the team standings and, as a result, he will pull on the green and gold in December of this year in a Test against Namibia.
In the December 2022 Test, Luke excelled, winning the prize for the most fish caught and picking up the floating trophy for the biggest edible fish caught. With his superb effort leading the way, South Africa also won gold.
Two Westville anglers received their national colours in 2022. Apart from Luke Cuthbert, Christopher du Bruyn won his national colours for bass fishing.
