ONLY A FOOL WOULD TELL YOU ITS NOT ABOUT THE FISH

It’s in the surprise of any tail or rise…the thrill of every sighting. It’s the anticipation of a strike, the frustration of a refusal and the nerves you hope never disappear.
But in our search for source water, unspoiled shoreline and surface action we found the settings that just take your breath away.
It is in the places we find ourselves walking, wading or drifting. But only a fool would tell you that it’s not about the fish!
From source to sea, join us on our voyage of discovery.

We all want to cast at fish that has never seen a fly, just show me an ignorant fish and I’ll show you a happy angler. Deserted atolls in the middle of the Indian Ocean fit this bill and it doesn’t get any more remote than the Aldabra group. Fortunately, it’s part of the remarkable conservation program that the outer

As we meandered our way down the Zambezi River through the beauty and splendour that is the Lower Zambezi National Park, I could not help but wonder what this round of adventure had in store for our motley crew of fishing rod and camera-wielding travellers.  Earlier in the day we met up with Rob Kay, owner and operator of Amanzi Zambezi Lodge.
