I am sure its Mackenezer ( not sure about spelling) :lol:


The German camp is in Meq, :lol: :lol: and so are the bigger Cats ( 200 + ) ....... I will fish down there if my cliants want to ....but you have to be preperad to have less fish, while you wait for the big one ....you also have to be prepared for the conditions down there ....fishing of a concret block :unsure: :unsure:

I much prefure myself to fish away from there ....A) because you will get more takes and land more fish and B) because of the amount of presure Meq recives.

as for where I fish ?? ...which ever erea gives me the best chance to land more Cats and Carp :thumb: :thumb:

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w179/zzsgng/DSCF0759.jpg

and a swim with Trees in is a must for me :-) or you will just bake in the mid day sum

just got back from Spain at 4.00 am this morning and allthough the river was the highest I have ever seen it and realy pushing through, we still managed some realy nice fish ( we actualy had more in one day than several of the other guided anglers had in a hole week :thumb: :thumbsdown_anim:

The best Carp was 37.00 lbs :thumbsdown_anim: and the best Cat was 137.00

Here are a couple of typical Carp as most are 20 +
