Egypt - Nile Perch Fishing |
Nile Perch Fishing Safari - Winter 2009A fishing safari on Lake Nasser with the African Angler is as close to the real meaning of the Swahili word "safari" as you are likely to find. The African Angler boat safaris are similar to the old style East African safaris where cross country vehicles were used for game viewing and travelling while in support there was a large truck carrying the camping equipment and the safari staff who would travel ahead and set up a luxury camp. The African Angler boat safaris are pretty much the same except they use boats instead of 4x4 vehicles. This is a style of mobile camping which combines comfort with the unique experience of being out in a real wilderness. Most anglers visiting Lake Nasser for the first time might catch the largest freshwater fish of their lives. Almost everyone achieves this goal and enjoys an angling adventure they will never forget. "Another interesting experience is shore fishing...... Where else for instance can you work artificial lures from the shore anywhere in the world either in fresh or salt water and encounter fish in the 20 - 100lb plus category. Nasser is quite unique in this kind of experience believe me." John Wilson of TV "Gone Fishing" Lake Nasser Safari Itinerary
