The Television Series

“Fishing is an ideal for many, an escape for most and a privilege for but a few.”

The WildFly Fishing series launched in 2005 to broadcast the incredible destinations that are to be found on our planet, using the catch and release medium of fly fishing as a means to highlight the waterways of our world.

Contracted initially for Supersport and subsequently ESPN International and the World Fishing Network , we can now reach 37.2 Million decoders spanning 104 countries in five continents worldwide.

Each show is fortunate enough to enjoy multiple flightings-:
1. In Africa it airs a minimum of six times over a two week period on Supersport 1 with repeats on alternative Supersport channels.
2. In North America and Canada on WFN it enjoys a total of 12 repeats every fortnight.
3. Through ESPN International, we reach out across the oceans on a Saturday / Sunday morning when the aspiring traveller is tuning out of their working week.

It is prime time television, spanning the full spectrum of scheduling opportunities.

It provides a major network to advertise a destination, product, service or brand to a targeted consumer. For more information click here

Join us and Nomads of the Seas on this unforgettable adventure.

Show 3 - Trophy Tigers - Upper Zambezi               
It’s hard to absorb a river system as vast as the great Zambezi, from its source in the highlands of Zambia it carves a path stretching two and a half thousand kilometers. To venture to old Stanley’s stomping ground is a journey that every fly fisher must make and one that the runners up in the Hyundai Corporate Trophy Challenge were relishing. Join them as they hunt for that trophy tiger.

Show 4 - The Indigo Archipelago - Mozamambique               
We venture to the reefs of Bazaruto tackling the kings and queens of the Indigo Archipelago. From sight casting amongst shoaling baitfish to reef drifting the deep blue, the WildFly team discover that any species will take a fly.

Show 5 - Kingdom of the Beast - Lower Zambezi               
There are not many true African adventures left and most frontiers have been tamed. Yet here in the very heart of the lower Zambezi remains an environment virtually untouched and richly abundant with life. Wildfly travels to this unexplored destination to experience the essence of a continent and the thrill of taking on the piscavore that rules these currents. This is a must see for all fly fishing and wildlife enthusiasts.

Show 6 - Medjumbe Island - Mozamambique               
The string of islands and atolls that make up the Quirimbas are home to every species of game fish that can be found off the East coast of Africa. Medjumbe is a protected marine sanctuary that offers fly fishers the opportunity to tackle the multitude of species that frequent these shores. So take a look at the Wildfly team in action.

Show 7 & 8 - Milky Myth Part 1 and Part 2 - Alphonse Island               
Long thought to be impossible to take on fly, it is ranked as the hardest fighting fish you will ever experience on a fly rod. We venture to the renowned sanctuary of Alphonse and St Francois to witness these shoals of prize fighters and experience the thrill and devastation that hooking into a milk fish can bring.Seeing is believing, and this is a must see for all fishermen.

Show 9 - Patagonian Plains - Yelcho Chile               
It is often said that fishing, as in life, is all about the journey and not the destination.  While most would agree that reminiscing on the lessons that we've all learn't in our devout following of the piscatorial faith, you can’t help reveling in the venues that inspire our journals. Yelcho was such a venue, and we explored its rich trout laden waters that flow from the Andes into the fabled Land of Giants.

Show 10 - Gold Rush - Vaal River               
The warm turbid waters of the Vaal River are the new hunting grounds for prospectors with a fly.When you witness a days bag exceeding 50 fish per rod you’ll know you’ve struck gold.Watch South Africa’s finest anglers haul in the fish and our provincial anglers battle it out to take top honours and become a Sybase Protea.

Show 11 - Run on the Delta - Okavango Delta               
There is a marvel of nature that is unique to our wilderness, a feeding frenzy that would have every self respecting fly fisherman’s adrenaline spiking.It’s an incredible sight to behold, wave upon wave of sharp tooth catfish chasing baitfish to the Delta, followed by the predatory Tiger fish.We chase this migration and gorge ourselves on aggressive antics of the striped water dog.

Show 12 - Wild Fronteirs - Cahorra Bassa               
We explore the vast expanse of Cahora Bassa in search of the trophy Tigers for which it is renowned. Amid aggressive hippos and opportunistic crocodiles, the WildFly team follows the Capenta trail to the beasts that feed almost exclusively on this baitfish. Be prepared to pack your bags as we break a rod or two.

Show 13 - Yellow Fever - Sterkfontein               
The Yellowfish has earned a deserved reputation as one of South Africa’s finest freshwater game fish. Sight fishing to these indigenous species on a high altitude gin clear lake is a challenge that you just have to experience. Watch us take on the yellows of Sterkfontein...its infectious.

Show 14 & 15 - In The footsteps of Giants Part 1 and Part 2 - Farquar Island               
The remote outer atolls of the Seychelles must rank as the finest saltwater fishing in the world.
