Destinations
TIGERFISH being indigenous to Africa is our strongest market for local and international clients. We offer a range of rustic to five-star venues on the Zambezi River from Angola in the west to Mozambique in the east. Tigers are one of the world’s most ferocious freshwater species testing the angler whether they choose to fish with fly, spinner, drift or live-bait.
The Zambezi River runs for 3600km from Angola in the west to Mozambique in the east. This beautiful river offers five-star lodges from the Barotse Flood Plains in Western Zambia to the Zambezi Valley in the east. Most stretches of this river offer large concentrations of game in some of the most fascinating bushveld Africa has to offer.
Big 5 also offers an exclusive houseboat trip through some of the best tiger fishing waters available. The houseboat covers a distance of 160 km over a period of five days and incorporates the world heritage site, Mana Pools and The Lower Zambezi National Park.
