Bokong Yellowfish Fly Angling The rain finally arrived. The river has transformed from clear and barely flowing to dirty and roaring. The murky water sent the yellows scurrying back into the dam, prompting our Bokong Yellowfish Fly Angling to take a new twist. With the Malibamat’so River as our alternative, we embraced the change and...

Yellowfish Fishing A crew of eager anglers packed their rods and headed deep into the Makhangoa mountains, chasing a shared passion for smallmouth yellowfish fishing, relaxation, and an ice-cold Maluti lager at day’s end. This wasn’t just any trip—it was a journey into the maluti mountains, where unforgettable moments were forged. Chasing Golden Yellowfish in...

Today marked another stationary donation to the Makhangoa community school. It is incredible to see all the kids back at school now, which only started on the 6th of April 2021.
