With the Katse dam level creeping closer to the home pool below camp each day, we have been lucky enough to come across good numbers of smallmouth yellowfish despite recent cold-water spell due to the heavy and consistent rainfall of late. Upon arrival, the new guests were welcomed by the camp staff and soon after the...
A truly an incredible second week on the Nubian flats. With the Nubian Flats Deep South season in Sudan now in full swing, we are glad to report back on the incredible fishing that was experienced this past week. The bluefin trevally were completely off the charts having landed a couple up to the 80cm...
As the river water cleared up again from the last couple days of downpour, the dads & lads group rolled into camp in awe of the gin clear waters below camp. The kids immediately set out to explore their surroundings, as the dads sat back and enjoyed a relaxed afternoon in camp around the fire....
With heavy rain settling in after the departure of the previous group of guests, the river had blown out and fishing the upper section of Katse dam was inevitable for the next guests arriving in camp.

With 2020 behind us and the new season commencing, the camp staff and guides were more than excited to welcome the first week’s guests.

The third and final week of the December 2020 season saw the best weather yet. We had light sporadic showers throughout the week with constant clear water and awesome sight fishing opportunity! Incredibly large numbers of smallmouth yellowfish had been patiently waiting to enter the Bokong River in the prior weeks as the river was...
