    Personaly I like the Shilton range… heard them called the South African Able, at half the price…

    I have a mate who does plenty of stealheading and he only own Shiltons for them, lives in BC…

    I got 2 links.

    If you can find them, give them a look, you might just like them…

    Yes please, more…

    I sing the praises of my Travler and I have a mate who has had one for 20 odd years, it still looks new…

    I need the “skinny”, so to say…

    Chad, it’s looking very good, very good…

    I didn’t check all the links, just went to what I like, but it all worked.

    I like the layout, the style and the simplicity of the navigation.

    I would add a few more pics to the sections I went to, it was like you got my attention and I wanted to see more, but there was just not enough. Tibor Nemth’s site is too complicated, but has lots of pics, I found I spent a lot of time looking for pics, but new that when I found them, I looked at all of them.

    I like the branding and the boldness of the black background.

    Anyway, that what I think…

    BTW, love your work…

    OK, you guys want to see what else they catch down under…

    Ex South African, Jono Shales, does a little fishing too…
    – Morsie, you know him??
    – Zach you need to PC this guy, he is soooo charismatic and passionate and …

    OK, so he hasn’t updated his site for a while, but you want extreme… I had this story told to me first hand…

    http://www.swoffa.com/articles/article02.html

    and all his trips have a little story about running out of gas, or sinking next to some reef, or being chased by pirates…

    We also got one, Karakal, beautiful animals, and they get quite tall… and I have had one or two clos’ish encounters while out and about, trying to sneak a close up of a kitten or two. Wish I still had that pic on my hard drive…

    They are tall because they hunt birds and are extremely acrobatic, I have seen one jump at least 3 meters (10 feet) straight up, from a standing start, to get a bird.

    Last thing, interesting circle in our farming community.
    Mature Karakal will take a lamb, so the farmers shoot them, however, they feed their young on young Jackals, so the Jackal population explodes, they wipeout their natural food supply of rodents, and instead of them just being a pair(for life), one of the litter’s females will join them, turning them into a formidable hunting 3some, and with nothing to eat, they then begin to take lambs.

    I can’t profess to having great BBQ sauce, but I can bear testimony to some of our peri-peri sauces. Nando’s for those of you who might know.

    I’ll do an exchange, for what have you…
