Very nice post Dean, I agree completely with everything you say. Except we fished the kasai during the barbel run last year, and some times the fishing was really really good. Getting a 20lb leader broken off like it doesnt exist by a massive run from a tigerfish is probably one of the highlights for me of any fly fishing I have had. One of the guys that was with us there at the same time started putting on 40lb leaders, and then his hooks started straghtening on big hookups. The stuff of dreams for me!
