SALT & SALMONIDS

Kingfish on the fly - an opportunity to target these impressive gamefish on the fly whilst visiting my daughter in NZ was just irresistible!

There may be no need to stress about how far out to sea you can throw a fly... Look for life on the edge - what you find may amaze you!

Portugal doesn't seem to feature as a worthy saltwater flyfishing destination...it should!

the consequence of so few boats plying the waters of Cuba for so many decades? Well, for the visiting angler, the fishing is utterly epic!

As Pacific salmon species go, this is the one with serious anger management issues that tends to go off like a small thermonuclear device...

"this was a challenge that put fighting a nuclear-powered 60lb Chinook on an 8wt rod on a footing with scooping leaves out of a pond..."

I couldn’t quite believe what I was being told to do, especially as the Javelin had never been a strong track & field event for me at school

I struck into a fish which turned out to be a 2-3lb jack, but as I started to retrieve the line, a 7ft shark suddenly burst onto the scene

it was Fuerteventura’s stunning, silver-blue, jet black-finned Palometa that gave me a flyfishing fun experience to rival any tropical flats
