What you'll do

In the waters of Lake Kariba, the tiger fish is king and keen anglers flock here every year to try and tame the beast. Set out onto the water, with an expert fisherman, to cast your line - be inspired by the African fish eagle who soar overhead before diving for their catch. There are over 40 species of fish, but from September to December, the water's warm enough to coax tiger fish to Lake Kariba. Most lodges on the shoreline include a fishing expedition in their itinerary.
