...more on Zambezi fishing | photos | book now

 

Species likely to be caught include the notoriously powerful tiger fish, bream and the Upper Zambezi Yellow Fish, a notable special for dedicated fishermen. The best time of year for fishing is June – November. The Zambezi River above the falls is subject to a catch and release fishing policy. Zambian waters are closed for fishing between 1 December and 28 February.
 

The Upper Zambezi has some 84 different fish species. As well as the tigerfish, the most exciting of all freshwater fishes to catch, the area is well known for several species of bream. Fishing boats with guides and tackle are available for those who would like a few peaceful hours on the river.
