Hello Sportman,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Welcome to AH! My one and only trout outside of the U.S. was on a dam near Nottingham Road if you've fished in that part of KZN.
 
Welcome expat. As someone who is considering retirement in RSA, I wonder if you would mind sharing a bit about your experiences as an expat in RSA?
 
Hello and welcome!
 
Thx Phil. Have not had the pleasure of fishing in KZN yet. I'm particularly drawn to the Drakensberg mountain highlands in the Eastern Cape for wild trout and yellow fish on the fly.

Hi Sportman, welcome to AH from a fellow South African in KZN. I have spent some time in the Eastern Cape and KZN Drakensburg (for work and not with my fly rod) but I know of a few rivers and areas that come highly recommended.

Welcome to AH
 
Sportman, welcome to the AH forum! I have been a flyfisherman for more than 60 years, fresh and saltwater, but sadly never in Africa. A tigerfish on a fly would be excellent sport!
 
Giday Sportman. Welcome to the A H forums.
 
Welcome to AH Sportman!
 
Welcome Sportman
I am from the Eastern Cape and have enjoyed many hours on our rivers & dams for trout & yellows.
The hunting is very good as well.
 
Welcome to AH !
 
Welcome to AH! Nice to have you on the site and we look forward to you sharing your stories!

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
