The dynamic fast flowing water, dotted and flanked with sand banks, rocky islands, big eddies and deep pools provide fly fisherman a myriad of fishable lies in which to target trophy tiger fish on fly. This venue differs from most on the Zambezi (both Upper and Lower) in that the waters fished have the characteristics of more technical river fishing, yet on a far bigger scale. Due to the 'tight' nature and structure-rich waters of the Zambezi as it flows through the Gorge, fly fishermen are kept busy casting into productive lies.
