NCYWG

 

NCYWG

The NCYWG is an independent, conservation oriented, non-profit organisation sponsored by Bell's^® Whisky and Xplorer™ Quality Fly Fishing Equipment and consists of voluntary members from all backgrounds.
The group was founded in 2000 by about twenty concerned, conservation-minded, passionate anglers, mostly from the Kimberley area.  This initiative was originated by a man named Abe Abrahams, who was employed by the Department of Nature Conservation at the time, and is now in the employ of the Department of Water Affairs.
The NCYWG became even more active in 2002 when alluvial diggers were becoming a serious threat to the wellbeing of the lower Vaal river in the Northern Cape.
We are also active in the Northwest province after Nature Conservation officials there asked for our presence on certain issues, in particular establishing conservancies.

Three Provinces Fly Fishing Club

During 2000 the Three Provinces Fly Fishing Club was founded to cater for the growing number of fly fishermen in the Northern Cape, Northwest and Freestate provinces.  To date the membership area has expanded to include anglers from all provinces and as far a field as Australia, USA, England and Russia.

The club caters for novices to the sport of fly fishing with expert tutors and access to excellent waters.
The Three Provinces Fly Fishing Club promotes the concept of catch and release and functions in close association with the Northern Cape Yellowfish Working Group.
