What a great report from Fritz... spot on...! Just need to add a HUGE thankyou to Fritz for organizing the trip - Fritz, your selflessness has not gone unnoticed... always willing to go the extra mile to help out. The trip back to take PH and Ruan back, was a truly exceptional gesture. I don't think there was a man in the group that could have done that walk twice on the same day and survived. Huge cred to you. This is one seriously strong boertjie... on the trip to Baby Brazen, he never even used a gillie... !! Then, your knowledge and fishing expertise made a huge difference to the success of the trip. Thanks once again fella, you and Raveen are champions!!
