Does any one have any advice/experience fly-fishing in Cape Town South Africa and or any experience at Alphonse Island Resort in the Seychelles?

urban angler runs a trip there and you may want to speak with them or check out their web site that has some info on the area.

I lived there all my life and yes there is good fishing in the Cape area depending on the time of year.
I'll pm you my phone number in New Jersey and I can give you a lot of info and a good Flyshop to contact
