<span style="color: #274e13;">We departed for Angola on the 9th of December 2014 from Divundu on the Okavango river in the north of Namibia entering Angola at the Katwitwi border post traversing the very bad bush road to Menogue. we camped 3 nights on the road before reaching Quio Bay on the 13th of December 2014.</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">The water was cold at 20-23 C. Inshore fishing was excellent with plenty of Atlantic Sada Sada, Amberjack and yellowfin tuna around. We landed more than 50 Sada Sada one day while fishing for Amberjack. Brilliant on light tackle.</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Off-shore fishing was poor. Only landed a couple of Dorado and saw only one Blue Marlin.</span></div>

South Africa </span> captured the attention of the world with a video clearly showing a swallow in full flight being captured by a Tiger fish. </span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;"><span lang="EN-AU">This bizarre behavior
of the African tigerfish was speculated for decades, but had never been
confirmed. It took extreme dedication and patience by Francois and his
fellow researchers to capture the video.</span></span><span style="color: #274e13;"><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"> They reported about 20 successful attacks on swallows

<span style="color: #38761d;">The Okavango River water level increased significantly since November 2013 with water now (latter part of December 2013) pushing into the flood plains. This is the fish breeding season. Feeding is now a second priority. The water is quite murcky with an average temperature of around 27.5 degrees Celcius. Fishing is slow with only tiger fish taking the lures in deeper channels and smaller tigershunting next to flood plains. </span></div>

monitor fish diseases such as Epizootic Ulcerative Syndrome (EUS). It was against this background that we conducted a joint fish disease survey in the Mahangu Game Park with anglers from the Crokango Angling Club using sport
fishing techniques (rod & reel) to minimize the disturbance of fish and the
ecosystem. Catch and release was strictly implemented with the recording of
fish data on our Recreational Angling Forms. Only affected (EUS) fish were kept for sampling purposes.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;">We only launched around 11:00 am on Sunday (14 July 2013) morning. Still managed to land 7 tigers. 3 Of them was above 1kg. Dawid lost a nice size tiger of about 5 kg close to the boat while waiting for me to ready the camera ....!!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">The fish are not very active yet with water temps around 65 F. One cannot really blame them. We missed one Nembwe strike. All the fish were caught in relatively shallow water (1.2-3m) off sand banks. There was not much action in the deep channels (with deep diver Rapala and Halco). Did not do any drift baiting.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">Fishing in the Okavango river in Namibia has many challenges regarding wildlife encounters. Never a dull moment. You are constantly on the lookout for Hippo...what a pleasant surprise if a group of elephant appears on the river bank or cross the river while you are fishing...with a nice size tiger on the other end of your line. Dawid managed to hook into some nice sized tigers on our last outing Saturday the 1st of June 2013 with elephants and hippo's galore...!!!</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;">My son Dawid and I went again fishing in the lower Okavango (Namibia) this weekend. We had a very nice time with some decent Tigers(15), Nembwe (4) and massive Thin-face tilapia (1). I was skippering the boat. 90% of the fish was caught by Dawid with dropshot (1/4 ounce jigg heads and 7 inch minnows with paddle tails) and double bladed copper spoons.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #073763; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The past fishing season started of with a bang, especially with the Bronzies... Ray Newing from Isle of Sheppey came over with Malcolm at the end of Jan. Target species were mostly edibles, but we did fish for Bronzies on 3 occasions. A couple of times we hooked Bronzies on light tackle whilst fishing for edibles, which ended in tears. We did catch a couple of nice size cob, but nothing big. Most of the fish around 4 - 7 kg. Among them we also caught a few rays, sandsharks etc., which was later used for Bronzie bait. It was Malcolm s first outing to Namibia and a hefty 20 Namibian dollar bill was the prize for the biggest fish caught... Ray wrote the following after the trip: </span><span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><i>"<span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Malcolm has face-booked his fish, and has my N$20 pinned on the shop wall. He also is serious about. going again.</span></i></span><br />

The whole trip is a logistical nightmare as the roads in southern Angola is still a huge challenge, especially if you are pulling your boat with a vehicle packed to the rafters. </span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13;">The highlight of the trip was to meet up with long time friend Fernando Duarte and his fishing mates, Tavira Lopes (Trex) and Marco Couta. These guys are the best sport fishermen in Angola, which became very apparent when they joined up with us and we went fishing with them on Fernando's 35 ft, 900 hp sport fisher. The sea conditions and the location was not ideal, but Fernando managed to put us on some nice Amberjack, Dorado and Blue Runne action. Their skills on the boat was amazing and I could see why they are so highly rated in Angola.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #274e13;">The beach braai's and fisherman talk late into the night will stay with me for a long time. Marco Couta demonstrated his skills as a master fish cook with the most delightful Dorado and Baracuda braai.</span></div>

<span style="color: #783f04;">Bronze Whaler sharks are prolific along the desert coastline of Namibia (west coast of Africa). Drawn to the rich waters of the cold Benguella current. These strong, fast sharks are known to jump on occasion when hooked. They can tame the strongest fisherman and cause cramps and severe muscle pain as they relentlessly fight using current and oxygen rich water to their advantage. Fights can last several hours depending on the tackle used. </span></div>
