Reel Africa Fishing Safaris

Research Expeditions

Every year we organise an expedition to further our knowledge about the freshwater fish of East Africa, searching our new destinations and species to feed our passion for knowledge and the sport. Past clients are invited to join us on these rough and ready trips which are charged on a cost basis only.

Ever thought about putting those trout fishing skills to the test? Catching Nile Perch on fly is a wonderful challenge and a huge rush to succeed!

Kyle caught this wonderful Elongate Tigerfish (Hydrocynus forskali) near South Island while fishing with Reel Africa off South Island.

Welcome to Our World

Fishing for us is a chance to get out into those wild places and practice the quiet art of rod and line. Kenya straddles the equator and is a piscatorial paradise. Glacial melt streams trickle down through every environment to tropical blue waters. We’ve spent uncountable hours fishing all over the country. We thrive on the safaris we do through untamed wilderness. Since childhood we have fished Kenya’s waters, thrilled with wild surroundings, shared a beat with crocodiles and elephant, basked with whale sharks, been beaten by wild storms and toasted in the tropical heat. Come and join us on one of our exciting fishing expeditions, which we host and guide. We each take between two and four clients. We try where possible to include wildlife and wilderness spectacles en route, savouring the entire environment and not rushing to ruin the spectacle of Africa. We are happy to organize fishing safaris for small groups when we are available, so for bookings and expedition enquiries, send us an e-mail...
