    Default Orange River Yellowfish Trip

    Hi Guys,

    We still have some openings on an upcoming yellow fish trip to Hunter Fisher Camp on the Orange river. A well run operation by Jacques Marais. Two of the guys will be flying up from Cape Town to Kimberley, so there is an opportunity to share transfer/car rental costs to the camp. Personally I will be driving up in my bakkie and have some space (share costs). Will also be great to meet some of the guys upcountry.

    The plan is to fish for smallies on the Thursday then do a drift on the Friday for those who want to and then fish for largies and/or smallies on the Saturday. Expert help will be readily available.

    Trip Date - 17th to 21st September (Wednesday to Sunday)

    Costs - R 4950.00 pp

    Attached is more information, contact Philip for bookings.

    I did this trip a few months ago and the fishing was great! We caught heeps of good sized yellows. The camp is really comfortable and is a quick boat trip away from the fishing grounds. The food was very good and the bush camp vibe is awesome.

    Hi Guys,

    I had the privilege to fish with Jacques at his camp in October last year. My good buddy Bjorn and I were the only fishermen attending the camp and this allowed us to spent quality time with Jacques on the river. I've learned so much from Jacques and the fishing was amazing over the 4 days. This was one of my best fishing trips after New Zealand :biggrin:

    You guys will be in good hands and the crew will look well after you.

    Enjoy!

    Some photos of the Trip:

    A woman who has never seen her husband fly-fish, doesn't know what a patient man she married!
