Enjoy the pure excitement and adrenaline rush of catching your first tiger fish
With the tiger fishing season upon us it is time plan your trips to avoid disappointment. Despite the late rains and the opening of the three flood gates at Lake Kariba, resulting in exceptionally high water levels on the Zambezi River, this year’s winter fishing has been unbelievably good. Now with the weather warming up, the fish biting can only get better!!
Recommended places to stay on the Zambezi River are Tafika and Shamashanga luxury river camps. Both offer an all inclusive price that covers your accommodation, all meals and beverages, boat hire, fuel, tackle and bait.
