From Game Fishing to Fly Fishing in Tanzania

The deep waters of the Indian Ocean along Tanzania's coast are rich in big-game fish. Deep sea fishing in the Indian Ocean's waters from August to November provides really good sport for the big Yellowfin Tuna, one of the strongest fish in the area. The big Blue Marlin and a number of Striped and Black Marlin are also found, as well as sailfish, king fish, dorado, sharks, barracuda and many other IGFA species.

The waters of Tanzania are only just beginning to gain the world-wide fame which means these waters are less populated with boats and fishing is at its most pristine. Deep sea fishing in Tanzania is best organized through private companies that specialize in boating and ocean trips, or through lodges and hotel properties that offer day excursions throughout the coast.

The game fishing here is excellent year round with many hotels boats fitted with equipped to the highest international safety standards including the latest technology such as GPS navigational aids, color echo sounder and fishfinder.

Fishing is an economic stronghold of many parts of rural Tanzania and quickly becoming a popular activity for fishing safaris along the country's rivers and lakes. Although it is not allowed in national parks, fly and lake fishing in remote areas outside the parks is possible. It is a rewarding and peaceful way to experience the beauty of African scenery and enjoy the country at a leisurely pace.

Sometimes private companies, tour operators, and lodges can arrange for day trips to nearby lakes and rivers, and longer fishing safaris around the region can be organized with tour operators. In addition to planned day excursions, local fishermen in the region will gladly take you with them on their daily fishing trips and show you the best places to get started.

The freshwater lakes of Tanzania offer fishing opportunities for visitors willing to rough it a little and to venture off the beaten track. Fishing along Lake Victoria affords an opportunity to experience freshwater lake fishing and observe life around the lakes of Tanzania where boatmen will gladly arrange for you to accompany them on their daily trips to net Nile Perch and Tilapia in the waters offshore. Trips to Rubondo Island National Park also offer fishermen a base from which to embark on trips around the Lake Victoria.

Fly fishing along the many rivers and large streams Tanzania is another rewarding experience for sportsmen wanting to experience remote areas at a leisurely pace. During the rainy season, rivers swell with fish and river life, and any time after the short and long rains is a good time to plan a fishing safari. Many adventure tour operators cater for international fisherman looking for the best fishing waters in East Africa, and everything from trolling through flood plains to fly fishing in mountain streams is possible.

A Good Life Wasted: or Twenty Years as a Fishing Guide

Told through the eyes of a longtime Montana fishing guide and itinerant fishing bum, A GOOD LIFE WASTED offers a unique perspective on an implausible period in the recent history of human civilization. When Dave Ames started guiding, Rocky Mountain locals rode horses and dug camas roots; now they're trading stock options on cell phones. The collision of stone and computer ages was short-lived, but the deep-rooted themes of this book remain.
A chronicle and celebration of the fishing-guide life, A GOOD LIFE WASTED is a vicarious pleasure for anyone who has ever wondered, even once, what it would be like not to have a "real job." The book is poignant and spiritual; it's Blackfoot Indians and copper miners' daughters; it's fiddles and guitars and the fabric of space; it's about what happens to wild people when the wilderness is gone.
From the first chapter--in which Dave Ames recalls bluffing his way into a job as a fishing guide to the rich and famous (after barely managing to suppress the overwhelming urge to go postal at the federal agency where he suffered his first, and only, "real" job in a cubicle farm)--we're hooked. We gladly follow Ames as he describes the rite of tasting clouds of mating midges to better match the hatch, tells the story of a fabled Blackfoot fishing guide, and shares his further adventures as a guy with no job, no office, and no stress. A GOOD LIFE WASTED spins a fascinating, compelling web--a web that entices the deskbound salary slave to make a break for it, and head west to big sky and fast, cold water, ASAP.
