    Default Update on the Rondegat

    I don't generally punt my articles or the magazine but this one is worth getting involved in. African Flyfishing this month - http://www.africanangler.com/fly_article.asp?id=826

    You obviously need to buy the mag for the full articles.

    I think the next 2 issues are going to fly off the shelves.

    Looking forward to reading the article.

    I'm not up to speed on this issue, except from chirps here and there on FT.

    A couple of questions:

    1.I thought the targeted river in the Cedarberg was the Krom? Is that still on the agenda?

    2. Any news on the Dorps or any other potential targets?

    Very interesting

    I will read the whole article before commenting, but I already see some holes in Mr Impson's reply

    This may be a bit of a silly question, but how can you poison only a section of river?
    Does the poison not flow with the water downstream?
    What effect does this have, and how does CN know that they have applied the correct amount of poison only to cover that amount of water?

    I can understand the poison no moving upstream, but this is afterall a river....

    I'll also have to read the article in order to get more facts, but what is the sense in poisoning the river before the barrier to the dam is in place?!
