For quite a long time now, I have been looking for the famous fly fishing destinations around the globe. I just thought that it will be a great opportunity to fish on the other side of the globe. What I really wanted was to go places and experience fishing in different fishing areas. This is, as far as I am concerned, the grandest dream of an angler.
Fortunately, I have already gained friends from my fishing bouts. It was through the spear fishing activity that I met a seasoned angler that invited me to join him in fishing in
Giant's Cup. "Where is that?", I asked him. He was kind of surprised with my reaction. Well, honestly, I have not yet heard of that place before. He smilingly explained to me that it is giant river in Africa where trout is plentiful. It was really interesting, and weeks after, we are headed to Giants.
If you think that a
great African adventure happens only in safaris, think again. For the first time in my fishing life, I have a seen a river 18 kilometers long. Would you believe that this place is actually hailed by UNESCO as a world legacy? No doubt, there is a large trout population at Giant's. The caretakers of the said river makes the hatchery of trout species very successful. It is a very nice place to catch trout, but Giant's is not open all throughout the year. The trout breeders make time for the hatching of trout. Only when the population has once again boomed will the river be open for fly fishing activity.
