Kamara II fished by myself and Raymond Matiba entered the Friends of Kenya Fishing Tournament run out of Hemingways Resort in Watamu. This is pretty much an Extended Combo, a marathon 33 hours of non-stop fishing. The fishing in the Pemba Channel has remained hot throughout and the monsoon is only changing now as I write this report 2/3s of the way through March.
