Sarah,
I am unfortunately in the River state area, which sounds good for fishing but is really bad for expatriats. Unless you like living tied up in a small hut in the bush somewhere being eaten alive by mozzies while your ransome money is being negotiated.
The kidnap guys here like it is going out of fashion.
So no, I keep my nose clean and stay in areas where it is "safe (ish)"
One of the barge captains here has promised to take me out but they are targeting boats heavily at the moment so i will give that a skip for the time being.
I am planning on going from here (Nigeria) on a fishing trip to Angola with a colleague next year some time. Nothing concrete as in planning, still all talk at the moment.
I have gone on a Marlin fishing trip in Angola before out of Luanda, man what fun that was.... so many fish so little time.
