I thought I might get a few raised eyebrows, starting with a topic like I did.

I'm sure many have noticed them before, but last year when driving over the Sabie Bridge at Lower Sabie, I spotted a few Tiger Fish in the water. As a keen fisherman, I was super excited to see that there are other areas in South Africa where Tiger's are found. Wouldn't mind being able to drop a line in there...

Sorry the pic isn't all that clear, but it's not easy taking photos into the water...

Have a look here there is more Tiger photos

Fish photos (or stories)

I have seen what I reckoned to be Tiger Fish in the Sabi River from Paul Kruger Bridge

I have also seen some nice specimens at the LS bridge on the lower side of the bridge July 2010



And it is true, there are tigers in Kruger

Join the club okie. How often have I stared at a stretch of water, itching to cast a spinner or a fish fillet and see what comes up. The Pioneer dam at Mopani looks like a very good place to chase after bass and tilapia.

Spotted this one on the same bridge by Lower Sabie:

Superb "catch"

Spotted this one at LS



I have had the pleasure of fishing the Luvuvhu river up north(with a staff member) and caught a few Tigers. Not a tourist in sight and the place all to ourselves(and a few eles). What a pleasure!

Caught a Tiger along the Sand River...a youngster but still a fight nevertheless

Saw some nice tigers down in the Letaba river from the bridge. Huge catfish in there as well.
