THE NUBIAN FLATS — Fly Fishing Paradise in the Red Sea
For a third season, Africa’s Tourette Fishing has guided groups of fly-fishing enthusiasts with an adventurous streak to an area of the Red Sea in northern Africa that it calls the Nubian Flats. in northern Sudan, with countless islands and vast expanses of shallow-water flats, all essentially never fished. Despite the unrest in South Sudan, Tourette fishing has found northern Sudan to be “inviting, friendly and safe,” which helps explain why they’ve finished a third successful season there. As for what anglers catch in these waters — the photos in this gallery tell the story. All were taken by Tourette Fishing photographer Mark Murray, whose skill with a camera is readily apparent.
Also check out a gallery from last year on fishing the Nubian Flats.
