    Default Moving to Northern Zambia

    Hey there
    Finally on our way out of the Middle East and moving to Northern Zambia to teach at a mining school. Putting away the saltwater stuff and bringing out the freshwater equipment.
    We aren't too far from Barotse and the tiger heaven there, but anyone have experience of this area in terms of tackle, species, locations etc.
    So excited to get back to the bush, and finally target a tiger!!!

    Beefy,

    Where in Zambia are you going too?

    The Bartse flats are in the Zambezi the southern border of Zambia if I remeber correctly.

    No doubt it will not take you long to find tiger water close too your location.

    Zambia is still on my bucket list of countries to visit in Africa.

    Good luck with the move.

    Awesome stuff!
    Be sure to post photos often.
    Those areas must have spectacular scenery.
    Bet it will be an total mind set change moving from the ME to Africa, but I also bet you guys will enjoy it!

    Been in UAE for 11 years, so pretty much half-arab. Might take a bit of getting used to Africa time again, but then again, there isn't too much difference to Arab time.
    Can't wait for barefeet, sounds of the bush and a climate that is decent throughout the year!!!
