Over the years the fish population of Lake Kariba has been the subject of much debate. From August to April the waters are warm and the legendary Tiger Fish challenges visiting fishermen. KITFT (Kariba Invitational Tiger Fishing Tournament) takes place every year in October.

Various species of Tilapia are found in the waters close to camp as well as Bottlenose and Cornish Jack. We keep a simple stock of rods and tackle at camp for anyone who would like to try a little fishing. More serious fishermen are asked to bring along their more specialised equipment.

The cooler winter months from May to July are not the best for serious fishermen.
