For those of you, who are wondering, why should I support people going to the world champs, lets look at what we have learned over the last 10 years from the competitions.
The various nymphing techniques, French, Czech, Polish and Spanish nymphing, which have opened just about all the rivers for fishing in South Africa. Imagine we could not fish for SM Yellows, scalies etc, our fishing would be pretty boring.
Still waters, the drift boats and long leaders, multiple flies etc.
New leaders and different ways to fish dry fly.
The knowledge gained from the participation in the World Champs, gets fed back into the local fly fishing community, benefiting all of us.
Support Phillip with this venture. Open your wallet, take R150 and buy a ticket. ( it is far less than what you would normally spend at your local on a couple of pints)

Nymphing, adds depth to your fly fishing.
Nymphing, is fly fishing in another dimension
