AMIRANTES ISLANDS, SEYCHELLES

Liquid Horizon, in association with Jonkershoek Fly Fishing, is hosting a
12 day trip
to the Amirantes islands in the Seychelles, on board a luxury 72ft motor yacht… for an unbeatable price! 

This yacht is in a class of it’s own, and is a far cry from the usual live-a-board boats that anglers are accustomed to – you will be fishing in complete style! Starting at renowned St Josephs atoll, you will not only have access to the magnificent bonefish and permit fishing on these flats, but also the extensive and red-hot bluewater fishing that surrounds St Jo’s.

And just in case that isn’t enough to satisfy your fishing lust, the yacht is totally mobile and will visit the all the other islands in the Amriantes– such as African Banks and Poivre Atoll, where more world-class flats and blue water fishing awaits.  

With such an open-ended dynamic itinerary, few restrictions and a dedicated and adventurous crew, endless fishing possibilities exist!

Dates: 17 - 29 October 2010

2010 OKAVANGO TIGERFISH RUN

Each year the waters of the Okavango Delta recede from the flood plains, forcing huge numbers of baitfish back into the main channels. This triggers an incredible feeding frenzy of tigerfish and barbel (catfish), a sight which just has to be seen to be believed!

For a few short weeks in October the fishing in this area is absolutely mindblowing, and combined with the world famous bird and wildlife, makes for an incredible African adventure.

If you haven’t witnessed and fished an Okavango barbel run in full swing, you haven’t lived. This is your chance! Join us on our annual tigerfish pilgrimage to the hallowed Okavango Delta...

THE BEST BONEFISHING DESTINATION IN THE WORLD??

A new Indian Ocean destination has been discovered that is offering mind blowing flats fishing for incredible numbers of MASSIVE bonefish!

Remote, isolated and exclusive - this string of atolls can only be explored by live-a-board yacht - and the MV Gryphon is as good as it gets.

In addition to the phenomenal bonefishing, anglers will encounter GT's, other travelly species and Indo-Pacific permit.
