Red Sea Fishing: There are Dorado or Dolphin fish (which shouldn't be confused with the dolphin), which can reach up to two meters long. There are Sailfish, Barracudas, Tunas, Mackerels or Wahoos, Spotted Groupers, Amber Jacks and hundreds of other species. In the Red Sea, you will witness some of the most beautiful fish known to mankind in their natural environment. The Lake Nasser Experience Most anglers visiting this unique desert lake for the first time catch the largest freshwater fish of their lives. Practically everyone achieves this goal and has an angling adventure they will never forget. As well as terrific angling, Lake Nasser is a fantastic place to visit, where stunning desert scenery borders clean waters, which are in turn dotted with countless rocky outcrops and islands.  Lake Nasser has arguably the best freshwater fishing in the world for both Nile perch and Tiger Fish. There are also several species of catfish; the legendary giant Vundu being the biggest. Two species of Tilapia also inhabit the lake and give a good account of themselves on a fly rod. All told there are some thirty two species of fish in the lake.
 Trolling You will catch most of your big Nile perch while trolling. There are three reasons for this:
Trolling covers a bigger area of water, potentially putting lures in front of more big fish. Landing big fish is easier than from the shore, due to the heavier tackle used and the advantages of playing fish from a boat. Most anglers spend more time trolling than shore fishing!  Shore Fishing Many Lake Nasser regulars prefer shore fishing to trolling. It requires more skill than trolling, and will often produce more fish. It can also be awesomely exciting. If you decide to give shore fishing a good try, then you will catch big fish. Most shore fishing takes place near camp in the cool of the morning, and during the break for lunch; however if we hit a group of fish while trolling, we'll often stop and shore fish. There is no doubt that huge fish can be caught shore fishing - the present record is 179lb.
Fly Fishing Very few people have ever caught a Nile perch using a fly rod. Fly fishing for Nile perch is still in its formative stages. We still have a lot to learn about this side of the sport so only take the following as a guide line. Even the smaller Nile perch 20/30lb will provide spectacular sport on a fly rod. Fishing seasons: 1) From February to end of July 2) From mid October until end of January Your Fishing program can be combined with any other kind of tours, such as classical tour, cruise, Safari etc. We can tailor your itinerary as per your request. |
