Guided fishing trips
The guided fishing trips with Kangamani Tours are different from your normal trips, firstly we cover the entire length of Lake Kariba, instead of sticking to one small region where the fishing could be bad at the time that you visit. Other guided fishing trips just use one method of fishing for the entire holiday, with us the whole of Lake Kariba is our playground so it gives us the opportunity to find the fish and try all the different fishing techniques. Deep water trawling for example is better in the Eastern Basin and we can try that, and we can be spinning in the Sengwa tree line the next day, or live bait fishing in Chete, the options are endless, as well as trying for some of the more exotic species such as Parrot fish and Cornish Jack.

10 day self-drive fishing tours
Our fishing tours are self-drive tours; at this point it is a 10 day fishing tour of Lake Kariba from the Zambezi to Kariba Town. We offer both camping and accommodated fishing tours staying in lodges along the lakeshore we scout the lake for the best fishing spots, both Tiger fishing and Bream Fishing. The fishing tours also encompass game viewing and visits to the town of Binga and Kariba. The requirement is to bring your own boat fully kitted, we supply everything except fuel and drinks, we can arrange the fuel for each boat, which we recommend takes two people.
Fishing and safari combined
Fishing safaris are basically fishing trips which take place in the most beautiful places one can imagine, such as Lake Kariba, Zimbabwe, with wild animals on the shore while you catch your famous Tiger fish. It is a combination of fishing and safaris. The surroundings of where one is fishing can be the most important thing. A remote body of water linked to the Zambezi River is one such place. After the days fishing you can imagine sitting on the bank or deck of your lodge enjoying a cold drink and reflecting on the day’s events. This is an African fishing safari.
