Where to go fishing (Pretoria area)

Had a fear that I might get pointed to the northern side of the border... Bots and Tiger Lodge is about on par with prices.... Anything cheaper and more local?

"My" guide does trips to Zimbabwe, but I'm not allowed in that country (long story and quite possibly not true

) so I have no idea on the prices. But I can send you his contact details if you are interested. Ex Protea angler. He does hunting trips too.

Fly-fishing is my most expensive hobby by far. It only starts with trout, then you go to geelvis and then you have to catch a tiger and then a leery and the list goes on. I don't have a tuna or a marlin yet. Waiting for my children to leave the house so I can sell it to cover the deposit.

hhhmmm ….kids may go out of / leave your house one day, but will never be out of your pocket

I am arranging marriages to hunting and fishing lodge owners.

Im in. And maybe we can invite some noobs along. I love watching noobs come to grips with and figure out the Vaal shuffle..

I'm game. Haven't caught a yellow on a fly yet.

The season is right as the water levels are low. However, time is always an issue. I suggest we do this on a Sunday ... no booking or commitment. If you show up, great. If not, so be it. Sunday 5 October is an option.
