All the Fun of the Pharaohs

There are a few types of trip commonly associated with Egypt: Nile cruises, all the ancient stuff, and expensive ‘do-nothing’ breaks on the shores of the Red Sea.

Not many people choose to combine the above three, but I’m not many people. I am one man. One man who happened to go on a multi-stop break around one of the world’s longest-established holiday destinations.

When I say ‘longest-established’, I mean it. The Romans were known to have made the pilgrimage to Cairo to marvel at the Pyramids at Giza during the height of their empire – about 2000 years ago. It is easy enough to picture the travel-weary Romans now, shielding themselves from the sun after their arduous overland journey of thousands of miles.

It took a grand total of four-and-a-half hours for me to get to Cairo, then another hour to reach my hotel, which just so happened to have a view that wasn’t half-bad. All three pyramids lined up neatly outside my veranda. No lashing sands for me then.

That isn’t to say Cairo is all luxury. Getting around can be a chore, particularly considering that the city’s population of 17 million has to get around using an infrastructure designed for just five million. So it you’re heading to the Pyramids, leaving early is a must.

The Pyramids and Sphinx need no introduction. They are huge and impressive and I can now say I have been there and done that, although unfortunately I couldn’t find the t-shirt seller.

When you’re done with the big and impressive stuff, escape the heat by stepping into a mosque during one of the five daily prayer times. Sit quietly in the cool of the building and watch the prayers take place. It was as much a religious experience as an escapist one considering the mayhem outside.

But after a few days in Cairo it was quite a relief to be able to up sticks and head somewhere a bit more tranquil. Next stop, Luxor.

Luxor is Egypt’s museum and the home of the Nile cruise. The Valley of the Kings lies nearby, as does the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Colossi of Memnon and Karnak and Luxor temples.

My home for one solitary night was the exquisitely appointed Sonesta Moon Goddess boat, moored in the centre of the city on the Nile’s east bank. All mod cons were on board including a gym and plunge pool, and the staff were efficient and charming.

Sadly there wasn’t enough time to travel anywhere on the river, but I did get a chance to see Luxor museum (quite small but with some wonderful exhibits) and Luxor Temple – a place which encapsulates the country’s heritage even more so than the all-too-mentioned Pyramids.

If you fancy learning about Egypt’s history in more depth, a visit to Luxor’s Cultnat heritage centre is an idea – you can watch panoramic video about the rites and rituals of ancient Egypt and really do some in-depth research in their extensive library.

Pretty soon my time in Luxor was up. I was still reflecting on what I would do on my return visit as the plane that was to carry me to Sharm el Sheikh came into view. I was not terribly impressed.

What amounted a large metal pipe with four desk fans strapped to the sides was supposed to transport myself and 30 others across 250-odd miles of desert, mountains and shark-infested waters to the resort of Sharm el Sheikh.

I was convinced that I was doomed. A brief conversation with one of my fellow passengers (a seven-foot German called Roland) ran something like this:

Roland: Don’t worry, prop planes are actually very safe.

Me: Please explain

Roland: Well even if three props fail, they can continue on just one engine

Me: Oh god.

One nervous hour later, and to my great surprise, we touched down in Sharm with all four engines spinning merrily away. I was promptly whisked away to my accommodation – one of the resort’s very nice and very large, and utterly charmless hotels overlooking the beach.

Sharm is billed as a diver’s paradise, and it really is. Just swimming a few metres from the beach and away from any rocks I saw a yard-long turquoise fish in completely open water that was perfectly happy to let me share its wake for a minute or two. It was a shame that no-one warned me about the dangers of what lurks in the water…

The problem wasn’t what would happen if a fish took a bite out of me, but rather the consequences of me taking a bite out of a fish. Before I travelled to Egypt people warned me about food and drink. Don’t have ice, don’t drink tap water and don’t eat salad were the three main concerns.

It would have been helpful if someone had added – don’t eat seafood. But they didn’t. So I found myself enjoying the latest fad diet which I have dubbed ‘the Cairo calorie counter’. This diet consists of one seafood meal, followed by sitting on the toilet for two days and having nothing but water and fruit juice. I lost the best part of a stone – it really works!

Other than the experience outlined above – which was my fault as much as anything, I have nothing but praise for the food in Egypt. Delicious spiced kebabs and flatbreads, amazing dips and sauces and delicious traditional sweet and gooey puddings are on offer – and you can eat ludicrously cheaply.

I lunched at Abou el Sid in Zamalek in Cairo where starters are around 10 Egyptain pounds per dish (around 80p) and mains are 20-40 Egyptian pounds (£2-£4).

My last morning in Egypt was spent on a quad bike safari in the desert to watch the sun rise over the mountains of the Sinai Peninsular.

The trip started a 3.45am. I was accompanied by four chain-smoking Russians who did nothing but talk about formula one, which didn’t put me entirely at ease about doing 40mph over undulating scorching sand and jagged rocks. Nevertheless, the bike was surprisingly easy to master and I was soon zipping through the dunes with a huge grin underneath my Arabic headscarf.

We stopped with a u-shaped wall of mountain to our backs and waited in silence for a while. The Russians lit their cigarettes and I pushed record on my handycam. Above our subdued chatter, we were hit by an ever increasing wave of intense heat as the Middle Eastern sun rose in the distance. It was the highlight of my trip and certainly worth the ungodly early start.

Afterwards, we hopped back in the saddle for a tea break, Bedouin style. Tiny glasses of tea with four sugars in each were plenty to give me the energy needed for my return journey back to the UK.

Bass Fishing Techniques – Looking For The Best Tips And Strategies…

Split-shotting has been around the fishing scene in one form or another since the inception of putting a worm on a hook. But, it wasn’t really popularized until the early 80’s as a viable means for presenting a plastic worm. The technique was formally developed by a Southern California angler by the name of Dick Trask. He developed the technique in order compete in local team events on the heavily pressured lakes of So. Cal. His method worked so well that it enabled him to be “the” major threat on the water at all times. He won or placed in almost every event he fished until his secret technique came to light. Since then, the Split-Shotting Technique has become a mainstay on the tournament circuits in the West and a few other states.

Fishing the split-shot rig is very simple. It can be fished in water as shallow as 1′ to water as deep as 90′. All you do is cast the rig out, let it sink to the bottom, and slowly drag it back to the boat. When working the bait back, some people like to use the reel to work the bait. Others prefer to drag it with the rod. In any event, the best way to hold the rod while working the bait is to hold it at a 90 degree angle to the line. This will give you better sensitivity during the retrieve.

Another way to work the bait occurs during very windy days. In most worm fishing techniques, it is difficult to feel your bait during windy conditions. But, the split shot rig can be easy if you use the wind to your advantage. All you need to do is cast your bait into the wind, let it sink to the bottom, and work the rig by allowing the wind to slowly move the boat. You do not need to reel. By using your trolling motor, you can control the speed of your drift and thus, the speed of your lure.

Although the rig was initially developed for use on heavily pressured lakes with small (3-4″ baits) finesse plastics, any size bait can be used. In California, the common baits are generally 3-5″ long. But, many people are using 6″ and longer baits too. Some may ask, why not use a Carolina Rig for the bigger baits? Well, that is an option but for the subtlest presentation, the split shot rig works the best. It has a minimum of hardware associated with it and you can use a very light split-shot for extremely shallow water fishing.

Freshwater Fish Identification is another technique used by anglers. Detecting the bite is the hardest lesson for a bass angler who is learning to split shot. The bite varies with the activity levels of the fish. At times, they will pop the bait very hard, making you aware instantly that the fish is eating the bait. At other times, there will only be a soft and nearly imperceptible tick and thereafter nothing.

Finally there is the much dreaded pressure bite, which takes two different forms. The first form of pressure bite is where you feel a little bit of resistance to pulling the line forward. It feels like hooking a spongy and soft rubber band. The other type of pressure bite is where contact with the bottom is lost. When a bass fish has picked up the lure and is merely following along with any of your forward movement. It is the reason as to why the maintaining of bottom contact is so important.

A sweep set is the preferred hook set to be used with this technique. Once you detect a fish holding the bait, drop the tip of the rod towards the bass, reel down till the point where you feel resistance or just short of it and horizontally sweep the rod away from the bass fish.
