FISHING IN GABON Click to see more pictures
The fish in Gabon really are huge.  There have been 250lb tarpon landed, monster snapper to 100lbs and huge barracuda, not to mention the jacks, threadfin and other species that are found here.  The fly can be worked in the surf or from the boat, depending on your choice.  Alternatively you may wish to fish with bait or lures.  Your fishing will be on the waters around the coast where you will experience some exhilarating adventures.
