Fishing:
Lake Victoria hosts some of the biggest Nile Perch and Tilapia in the world.
The largest Nile Perch caught at the Lodge is 86 kg and Tilapia 4,2 kg.
Fish for Tilapia on the shores of Wag Hill or cruise around Lake Victoria,
trolling for Nile Perch in one of the fully equipped fishing boats.
Trolling with lures is the main method of fishing, with drift and live bait
fishing an option. All equipment and lures for Nile Perch trolling are supplied,
but anglers are free to bring their own, especially lighter equipment for
Tilapia.
The boats are fitted with fish finders and all the necessary equipment for
Nile Perch fishing is provided. Life jackets, GPS, flares, a basic first aid
kit and a mobile phone are carried on board for safety. A cool box is carried
on board to accommodate drinks whilst out fishing.

diversity of the indigenous fauna and flora, or can choose to take a guided
walk with the resident guide whose knowledge of the area is vast.
