Hi Guys,

This 3 day T & R tournament (scheduled from 23 to 26 January 2008) in Richardsbay South Africa, is now in it's 4th year, and continue to grow in popularity. In 2008 it will set the stage as curtain raiser for the 2008 FIPS World Trolling Championships that start on 27 January 2008 and offer you the unique opportunity to fly or drive in, charter a world class boat, fish the tournament and view or hunt the Big 5, all within a 2 hour drive from the port city of Richardsbay.

See previous issues of Marlin for the report on Billfish in Africa and the "explosive" bite in Richardsbay, when in 2006 35 billfish (Blue, Black and striped marlin, as well as sails and short bills) were released from only 46 boats fishing.

Alternatively visit the website www.blackwatchsa.co.za for details. Rumour has it that already a team from Mexico and one from Scandinavia have chartered boats for this comp to prepare for their onslaught on the World Championships. Come enjoy Zululand's renowned hospitality
