One of the world's finest freshwater fighting fish inhabits these waters and guests have the opportunity to go out on the tender boats to try their hand at hooking into the mighty Tiger Fish.

Nature Walks can also be conducted on some of the larger islands found along the river.
The houseboat is moored on the mainland near the town of Shakawe. It is easily accessible by tar road and Shakawe has a small international airport suitable for light aircraft.

At Dumelabotswana, we  offer custom made Fishing Safaris. Please contact us for any enquiries you might have about Fishing Lodges or safaris.

Fly Fishing lodges in Botswana offer sport-fishermen or adventurous vacationers the unique experience of a fishing vacation by combining daily fishing excursions with accommodations & WILDLIFE. You may choose to stay for a day, or a week at a lodge to fish the local waters. Often a Fly fishing guide will accompany the fishing party, guiding them on nearby streams, rivers, or lakes, or some fishing lodges & Houseboats provide fly-in service to remote fishing locations, returning to the lodge at the end of the day for some beer, wine, and fellowship around the fireplace, and to engage in conversations about...what else, fishing FOR TIGER FISH
