I'm home. What a trip! It will take some time to post the photos and tell the story so relax and enjoy.

1st bad thing that happened: 1 chip in digital camera corrupt. lost about 200 pictures.

Here's a croc I met on our first day on the Zambezi river.

We spent 4 days fishing for tigerfish on the Zambezi at Msuna, a fishing resort. Here is a local in a dugout setting nets with his little home in the background(which is in Zambia).

On the 2nd day of fishing, we were in a small lagoon when I drug my Mepps #5 Black Fury across the back of a 500 pound croc and sunk the treble into his side just behind the left front leg. After a long and exhausting fight, we were forced to cut him loose.

Msuna is actually an Island, this is the tip of the island just above the boat launch.

Here's a beautiful sunrise. I lost all the sunset photos on the corrupt disk.

O.K. Here it is, the first animal I harvested while on Safari in Zimbabwe. One shot at 170 yards did the job just fine.

Hey! I think I killed some of those over at your place last time I was there!

Looks like you had a great time! No surprise of course... Welcome home!
