Get ahead of the curve and book your 2019/2020 Indian Ocean trip early to avoid diary clashes or a lack of space. Space in 2018/2019 has proved to be at a premium so while the next season seems a very long way off, these rods will fill fast so don’t risk being disappointed, hold the space that works for you now.
