Waidmannsdank!

No tsetse flies in the delta, though the mosquitos would carry you off as soon as the sun hit the horizon. We fought the flies when we moved on to the camps where we hunted sable and nyala. We were in central Mozambique so no issues with the separatists.

I use mefloquine. I like it because it is a once a week preventative.

Spent my first five years in the military in a small kaserne in Wertheim, Germany. Became the protégé of a large revier holder who was a retired doctor and "Winter War" survivor. I helped with the shooting quota, and learned to respect so much about the German hunting traditions.

Thanks for posting that report, it's like Africa of old, the kind of hunt that I will only dream about! Really enjoyed it.
