Right, whatās all this business about Tanzania tigerfish trips?!
Letās lay out the bones of it, because thereās a bit going on!
River Tigers:
Either by foot or on one of the many boats stashed throughout the bush, cast your way through the eddies, rapids and waterfalls of this ancient African riverscape. Perch yourself on a beach with a beer, and feed poppers to savage packs of tigers, or ask your guide to ātake me somewhere you have never fished before!ā Thereās no shortage of new ground to discover!
The river tigers are big, mean and fight like nothing else on Earth!
The New Neyere Dam:
Deep in the bush, 100 km long, built to crank out half of Tanzaniaās energy demands at the outflow, while the rivers flowing in pump it full of tigerfish! This place is literally SWARMING with big tigers that have never seen a lure. Now in its 4th year, it has been confidently predicted that world record tigerfish are going to be landed any time nowā¦.
Insane freshwater fishing that must be seen to be believed!
Yellowfish & Friends:
Drop dead gorgeous, teasing you from afar, and the envy of your friends should you actually seduce one, taming yellowfish from the rapids is always punching above your weight!
Fine lines and a feather touch are needed to fool these fish into biting, then youāre immediately under-gunned should you actually hook up!
Fly, Spin or Bait:
With expert guides and a plethora of fish willing to play ball, you can pick your poison and cast any style you want.
Bobbers and bait for lots of laughs, baitcasters and poppers for explosive action, or lofty long-wanding for piscatorial perfectionists!
Wildlife:
Trundling to the next fishing spot by 4WD, have those cameras at the ready with antelope, wild dogs, bush buck, baboons, warthogs, buffalo, hippos, lions, leopards and even elephants all on the cards.
The Lodge:
Nestled on a serene section of the Kilombero River, hearty meals, friendly hosts, cool showers, king-size beds, and a lullaby of honking hippos all helping you recharge for the next big day of adventureā¦
