Fishing Safaris are generally available in Zambia throughout the year. The best fishing period, however, is between April and November. The southern portion of Lake Tanganyika is the annual venue for the Zambia National Fishing Competition at Kasaba Bay. Both local and foreign teams are welcome to this competition, which takes place usually in April each year.
The Nile perch, the Nkupi (yellow belly) and the Tiger fish are the main catches. However, perhaps the Zambezi River offers the best tiger fishing grounds in Africa. Other lakes for good fishing are Lake Kariba and Lake Bangweulu.
There are some stunning fishing areas in Zambia, fly fishing for tiger is superb in the upper stages of the Zambezi River and some smaller river too. Drift baiting and spinning in the remaining areas.
Kingfisher Camp in the lower Zambezi is ideally situated and equipped to offer fishing tours of no mean calibre.
