Just getting back from Niassa Reserve with Jamie. Had a fun trip. Jamie is a very knowledgeable PH and Eveline is fun to talk with at camp.
Got my leopard in the daylight! It was 4:55pm and had other leopards on other baits with daylight pictures on the cameras also.
Very lucky to get a large Niassa Wildebeest the first day. These are only found in the Niassa and are a species of opportunity. Also took a great Buffalo, a large Lichtenstien Hartebeest, a decent Reedbuck, and a Yellow Baboon. Should have got a big Sable but my bullet found a tree branch instead and he was wounded/lost. He was still with the herd with little blood. OUCH!
Could have shot Boehms Zebra but turned them away as we were hot after Sable each time.
If you want a nice leopard or lion, Jamie has high cat populations. Lots of sightings and tracks of cats.
Also lots of elephant including some 70-100 pounders but not importable to the USA yet. Such a shame - many elephant in Jamie's area.
Great aircraft and great meals. Other equipment was good to average but Jamie is upgrading it. Camps are very remote - 250 miles from Pemba. Only a few roads and fewer people and poachers than the Save where I hunted in Zim. No high or low fences here. Remote wilderness hunting. Loved it.
