“Fishing provides that connection with
the whole living world. It gives you the
opportunity of being totally immersed,
turning back into yourself in a good
way. A form of meditation, some form
of communion with levels of yourself
that are deeper than the ordinary self.”
- Ted Hughes

David and friend Nico taking a short break from a day boating and fishing the Okavango Delta in Botswana. This secluded little beach is located on
a bend in the river close to faster current, an ideal spot for tiger fishing and a bit of shore casting. See full story on Page 20.
