very interesting

"A large swimming cage." I guess this means doing a little trolling for crocodiles also!

Martin, that sounds like a helluva hunt! Especially hippo and tuskless!

What dates you after my buddy?

Dude,
Where was this bloody houseboat last year, or the year before, or the year before?

Walking my bum for miles across the bloody hills in 110 degree heat when we could have been riding in air conditioned comfort drinking fruity drinks with little umbrellas in them and shooting buff out the window!

I hope to hell my girl-friend doesn't see this hunt .

I keep trying to get to Africa alone, she would love this.

Be glad she enjoys your company that much. I can't get my wife to go again and She darn sure won't go if we're not staying in a lodge. Not gonna do the tent thing at all.
Nice deal, I wish I could go this year but, alas, it is not in the cards.

Would make for a cool safari. Maybe one day I'll be able to hunt from this boat. Have any pictures of the boat?

What about sundowners around a campfire?

That was my first thought as well. Swimming cage... nice touch.

Great idea Martin! I'd love to read a hunt report from this trip. Unfortunately, I'm out for '12.

What better way than to pull into the shore .....somewhere remote and light a big mopane fire, who needs a fire at camp when you have 2 million aces of africa to pick and choose from!!

Do You have pictures to post

Hello Martin

Do you think such a hunt would work with two children of 5 and 8 years?
