Episode 63: Tiger Shangri La, with Francois Botha

  • Summary

  • Francois Botha is a lifelong fly angler and adventurer from South Africa. He's traveled the world chasing some of the most renown and relatively unknown species of fresh and saltwater fish on earth. He's spent the better part of the last two decades chasing the goliath tigerfish on fly, even when others said it can't be done. His journey into the Congo and Central Africa is a unique tale of facing adversity, naysayers, and ultimately fulfilling a dream.

    In this episode we talk about the journey and the challenge of finding and capturing goliath tigerfish on fly. We talk about partnerships and efforts to ensure the conservation of the species, the unique river systems they're found in, and the development of Goliath Expeditions.
