The First Baha Challenge

The First Baha Challenge

Sunday morning saw the first small Baha Fly Fishing Challenge which was held at Casino Beach. We all met in the Suncoast parking lot in a light drizzle where we kitted up and tied on our favourite flies. Once everyone was ready we headed down to the beach and the challenge began. Thankfully the surf …

Kamberg Snow Adventure

Kamberg Snow Adventure

With the news of heavy snow falls on Tuesday and some light snow on Wednesday there was only one place that the Baha Boys were going to spend Woman’s Day…and that was being manly in the Berg with a little fly fishing on the side. We decided to head up slightly later than normally knowing …

Lesotho Advenure (My Bulls Part 1)

Lesotho Advenure (My Bulls Part 1)

With my wedding looming Nick stepped up to the plate as my best man and took me fly fishing in Lesotho as part one of my bulls. At 3:30am I lazily climbed out of bed, pulled on my Columbia kit and did a last minute check of my gear. One of the pleasures of fishing …

A Tough Morning At Prairie

A Tough Morning At Prairie

Having played four league matches in a row I was feeling a little tender and in desperate need of a relaxing evening. Friday thankfully provided just that, so we turned down a few braai invitations and instead spent the evening relaxing on our couch. But rest is for the wicked and so I dragged myself …

A Solo Kamberg Adventure

A Solo Kamberg Adventure

Sunday morning started at the normal 5:30am for me when I packed the car and headed for the Kamberg Nature Reserve. Nick was heading up Sani Pass and so I’d decided to take the opportunity to explore the Mooi River which we’d always ignored for some unknown reason. Sharon was originally going to join me …

Sunday saw Nick and I head out fishing once again. The rivers opened on the 1st September and we thought we’d go and look at a section of the Mooi River I’d fished two or so years ago. After the usual 5:30 start and mandatory cup of Wild Bean coffee we hit our first glitch…road …

Ever Faithful Kamberg

Ever Faithful Kamberg

On Sunday morning I picked up Nick and Clinton and we made our way (via the coffee shop) to Kamberg for some Trout fishing. It was Clinton’s first time with a fly stick so we were all hoping he’d pick it up quickly and get into at least one fish. By 8am we were all …

Uitzicht

Uitzicht

Sunday’s fishing was as exciting as always. Nick’s (read Tarryn’s) Terios had gone in to have the tow bar changed but he had luckily been lent another Terios. After picking me up we stopped for the usual cup of coffee before heading for Uitzicht in the Kamberg area. The temperature was -1 when we passed …

A Tough Day On The Bushmans River

A Tough Day On The Bushmans River

Thankfully I woke up feeling somewhat better than I had when I fell asleep (dreaded sickness). I packed up my kit, got into the car and headed for Nick’s place. Two hours later and we were pulling into Giant’s Castle Nature Reserve. It was 6 degrees and the water in the Bushmans River looked chilly. …
