It was an absolute pleasure to have this group of champions back at the Makhangoa Community Camp to end off the year. Chesney, his uncle Peter (Uncs) and cousin, Trevor came up to the hills with their mates, Paul (Spank), Mork and Eugene. On their previous trip to the Bokong there was hardly any water...

This is an exceptional fish, by any standards, but there is a lot more to this fish than its size. Estimated at 45 kilos, this is the biggest cubera that we have landed in Gabon on lure, off the beach. The reason that this fish is so special is because of the story that it

Our fifth group of the season had very technical fishing in skinny water and pumping winds, but the fish were obliging and the results were good. Darren and James made the long journey from Dar-es-Salaam in Tanzania to take on the yellows of the Lesotho highlands. They were joined by cChappie and his son Nic,...

Pieter Taljaard hosted the first Vagabond Fly Mag trip of the season. It was a proper full house as we had eight rabid fly anglers in the camp. Dave (Davo) and his mate patric (Trev) had fished with us before on several occasions and it was a treat to welcome them back.

Nothing beats a full fishing camp, and after the last few relatively relaxed weeks, there was a definite buzz about arrival day as we welcomed seven new guests for the fifth installment of the 2016 Tiger season. As always we were very happy to be seeing Paul Lavins back where he

After a last minute cancellation on arrival day of two due guests, Steve and Vyvyen found themselves with the same happy conundrum that faced our previous guests, with one difference. Not only did they have both rivers and camps to themselves for the week, they also had four

30km of Mnyera River and about 60km of Ruhudji were the exclusive property of just two anglers that made up the third week of the 2016 season. It was great to be able to catch up again with Tim who had fished with us two years ago, and also a pleasure to welcome Allan, who...
