INTRODUCTION
Without a Doubt the Finest Tigerfishing on the Planet.
The Mnyera and Ruhudji Rivers together offer one of the last remaining frontiers of freshwater fishing – as of November 2008 less than 15 individuals had fished these amazing waters. Set deep in an untouched corner of the Tanzanian Wilderness, this area is famous for being home to monster 20lb+ tigers. The river banks are also home to big game and many rare and endemic bird species.
The discovery of this system in August 2008 has been widely acknowledged as one of the highlights in African Sport fishing over the past decade. To indicate the enormity of the discovery, in the past half century that fly fisherman have been targeting tigers on fly, a 20lb fish was not landed. This statistic was shattered in 2008 when 8 fish over the 20lb mark were landed in as many days at Mnyera!
The season runs from 1st August to 10th November. It is during these months, when the water temperatures rise and the clarity increases that the trophy tigerfish of Mnyera and Ruhudji rivers begin to feed aggressively.
The Outdoors Club has partnered with the best and long standing Tanzanian safari outfit to offer the finest guided tiger fishing in Africa.
Our Partners fundamental operating principles of low impact and sustainable tourism ventures in all areas under their management, mirrors our philosophy of sustainable and elite fly fishing operations. The anti poaching work done within the Mnyera and Ruhudji Basins by this company is outstanding, as it is in all other blocks they manage through Tanzania. The hard work and dedication of them is evident in the ever increasing fish numbers.
By offering the finest outfitting, concession management, and year round anti poaching (land and rivers), combined with the most experienced guides, cutting edge beat management and leading operations managements, the lodge offers undoubtedly the finest fresh water fly fishing in Africa.
