We leave Saturday morning 3am. Driving trough Botswana up to Henties baai. Expected to reach the Namibian coast around 10-12 pm. 18 + hours of driving thumbdown

We will spent a couple of days there and then drive up to Angola we should reach our final destination by next Thursday-Friday. Will get as much info as possible on Angola itself and maybe on hunting.

I'll hopefully be back around the 18-19th November. Will post pics and story of course. Big Grin

I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good.

Good luck on the fishing. Sounds like a nice trip if you can find enough fuel along the way.

Try to find out the myths or facts on the Giant Sable if possible.

Cheers, Peter

Just got back from fishing north of Henties baii, caught some nice Cob and a bunch of sharks.


Never worry about theory as long as the machinery does what it's supposed to do.

Balla balla...read 'A Certain Curve of horn' by John Frederick Walker. He collates over a centuary of enquiry and obsession with the Giant sable, from folklore to genetics. All peppered with Angolan history and poltics until the late 90's...very good read IMO.

Cheers

The bronze whaler is a really interesting shark. I understand they can get up to 300kg.
