Welcome to GI-Fishing

Fishing the Zambezi, the way the river rewards

The Zambezi above Victoria Falls is one of Africa's great fishing rivers, home to the hard-fighting tigerfish. We take anglers onto the water with local guides who know where the fish hold and how the river changes through the seasons. Whether it's your first cast or your hundredth, we build the day around you — and we practise careful handling and catch & release to keep the fishery healthy.

Tiger fishing on the Zambezi

Africa's hardest-fighting freshwater fish

The tigerfish is fast, toothy and unforgettable to hook — the reason anglers travel to the Zambezi. We fish for them from the boat with guides who read the current and the structure, so you spend your time where the fish are. Conditions vary day to day, and we'll always give you an honest picture of what to expect.
