I've taken one waterbuck, in the Gwayi Valley in 2002. It was on "my list" and the PH looked for one along one of the rivers - Shangaani ? - on the first morning. We took a decent one on the first morning, if I remember rightly.

Regarding the meat being "inedible", Pierre the PH said this is not so. He showed me how they shampoo the hair of the waterbuck thoroughly first, before skinning, as the wax on the skin if touched and then the meat touched will give it the off flavour. He said it is fine if washed first, then skinned.

In 1988 I had a great time walking on an island in Lake Naivasha in Kenya where the game is tamish, and there were many waterbuck there. Lots of other non dangerous game on the island.
