Tiger fishing the Zambezi with the fly....on the Caprivi Strip, Namibia

Here are a few more photos (Iphone quality) from our trip through Botswana and Namibia on our way to the Zambezi. The animal road crossings are in Chobe National Park. They close the park at dark which would make sense after looking at the photos....

What type of leader/tippet stands up to those teeth?
 
Very cool, thanks for sharing!

I was using about 4-6" of #2 or 3 stainless wire. It worked perfectly. I was using a 30lb. butt section of leader with with a 20lb. tippet.
 
Dan and Lisa warm,yet chilly hallo from africa.Was great to have you guys here on a Tiger Fishing Safari.Thanks for the kind words we appreciate it.
It is always great fun to have you guys with us.Hope to see you again soon to improve that personal best.

Kobus is one of our most senior and requested PHs at Limcroma. Although he is no longer hunting full-time, he is still doing a handful of selected safaris each season with us. I know he will be very successful in his new endeavor, and I'm am sure anyone fishing with him will receive first-class treatment!

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
