Each year between September and November the waters receding off the vast Okavango flood plains force recently spawned bait fish from the security of the vegetation rich plains into the dog-eat-dog world of the main Okavango River. The healthy population of catfish in the Okavango River zone in on these helpless bait fish and form massive feeding frenzies, at times thousands of fish, thrashing in the river margins as fleeing bait fish scatter along the surface. These frenzies are commonly referred to as “catfish runs” and are often termed the fresh water equivalent of the wildebeest migration. Witnessing the catfish run alone is reason to get to the Okavango River over these dates. It is, however, the Tiger fishing that draws avid sport fisherman from around the globe to the Okavango River each year. Tigerfish, arguable the finest fighting fresh water game fish around, feed with abandon around the catfish run, providing some of the finest fly fishing available. Our team has over 18 years combined experience on these waters and will guide you competently and professionally over the annual catfish run.
