Fishing

One aspect of fantastic fishing is a great landscape, and the other is, of course, serious fish. Possibly the most exciting fishing in Africa and this stretch of the Indian Ocean is for tigerfish, the common name for a variety of species from several different families of fish, usually due to their colouring or otherwise fearsome appearance.
Fishing in Africa can be some of the best in the world. Fly-fishing the Zambezi is one of the great fly-fishing experiences, and fly fishermen can truly test their abilities on the Indian Ocean! Traditional deep sea fishing on the Indian Ocean is more common, and yields world-record sized catches.

The tiger-fishing on the Zambezi river is some of the hardest, most testing fly-fishing in the world... and in seriously impressive surroundings. We often marvel at how many of our fishing clients consider the wildlife and safari to be secondary to their focus, as these are equally top notch here!  

The Indian Ocean around the coast and islands of Mozambique are superb fishing grounds. Recreational and specialist fishermen will find serious sport in these stunning archipelagos, with plenty of beach and island paradise to fulfil the wildest dreams of non-fishing friends and partners.  

 

The Pemba Channel is world renowned for the massive pelagics that cruise its depth. These are world-class fishing waters, and there are plenty of opportunities to wrestle Big Fish here. Pemba, Zanzibar and Mafia islands all have good sea fishing, and freshwater fishing is best in Selous and Lake Tanganyika.

Dedicated fishermen could book a formidable itinarary to fish throughout their safari and Indian Ocean experience, with plenty to interest and absorb any non-fishing fellow travellers. There are fewer inland options, but all are possible, with varying degrees of back up and guiding.
