After a rather interesting DFT demo by Marco Breschi, our club’s bass expert, I had a chat with him and we decided to head down to Inanda Dam on Sunday morning for a little bass fishing (on fly of course). With my newly tied strip leech in hand, Nick picked me up, we met Marco …
The weekend started with another wedding, this time Western and Karen’s. Amazingly it was Karen who had caught the garter at our wedding, so perhaps there is something in these old wives tales. With the ceremony being held in the Firgrove Chapel, Alverstone, at 11am, Sharon and I stopped off at the farmer’s market and …

Fresh off a week at Mkhuze Sharon and I were at it yet again, only this time we were heading for the mountains to overnight in Zulu Cave. The original plan had been a hike to Marble Baths but sadly it was booked and we were forced into plan B. We met Lyall, Caroline and …
