I am currently deployed to Djibouti Africa, and I sure am missing home. I have fished since a young age mostly with live bait for catfish, that is until I hooked into a good size bass. I plan on investing in a boat and some better fishing gear and give tournament fishing a try. Starting off as a non-boater and then progressing. I have been reading magazines and scouring though Bassresource since I left the states. I would love any help and advise I could get. Thanks again, happy jaw jerking.

Welcome to our little club. Lots of nice people and lots of information here.

Djibouti? Just another Middle East Shilthole. It's just across the street from Yemen. If you are allowed to say, what branch of the service are you in? I'm guessing that your are in the Navy and patrolling the straight.

Actualy I am in the Army, we are stationed on a small post filled it all Army, Navy, Airforce, and Marines. The neat thing is there are French, Japanese, South Korean, Egyptian, and a few other small groups of military here. Its actualy been a good deplyment, I have been sent down to Mozambique to conduct a seminar with some mechanics in thier military. While down there I got the chance to do some fishing. We used old 90s pocket fishermans and prawn parts, had a blast. I have recently gotten to go out on a day trip and fish here in Djibouti, it was very different they gave us snorkels and a piece of plywood with line wrapped around it and a piece of meat took 10 minutes to get used to laying on my tummy to fish but we caught a lot of smaller grouper and a few other 15'' fish.
