Capitaine – The perfect conditions dilemma

Capitaine We were super excited to welcome our second group of the 2023 season to Gassa Camp. This group consisted of two South Africans (Chris and Pete) and an Aussie (Alex). Spirits were very high, and bags were haphazardly thrown into tents while the 12wt tackle was assembled for the first evening of fishing for...

Gassa Camp – Cameroon – Season 2022 : Week 3

A hot and dusty drive into camp, an ice cold beverage and a shower to wash the dust and grime off body and throat alike while hippos grumbling further upstream in their nightly chorus and the odd call from a Pels Fishing Owl perched in the taller trees that line the Faro. This is wilderness...

Gassa Camp – Cameroon – Season 2022 : Week 2

CAPITAINE – Now Available

Imagine a fish so big that some call it the elephant of the river. Imagine it once inhabited the waters of 1/4 of the African continent in vast numbers.

Capitaine – Cameroon Season 2020, Week 3

The third guided week on the Faro this year was for me the ‘moving week’ of the season, where there were many dynamic macro factors in motion that required a huge amount of versatility from the guides and guests to make the most of. There finally seemed to be a slight letup on the low...

Faro River 100 Pounders Club

Words from the angler : I am not a lucky fisherman, but on this evening, for once, Murphy was not on the fish’s side. Just after I hooked the fish it ran under a ledge against the rock wall where I was standing, and continued to run and run and run. Nothing that I nor...

Faro River 100 Pounders Club

Words from the angler: Myself, Ed Truter and two guests were busy with the 2nd of two exploratory missions in early 2018. The January trip had been a success with 3 fish over the 100cm landed, but we had to go back at what we felt was the tail end of the prime season, to...
