Shackletons Tiger Fishing Lodge is located in the flood plain region of the upper Zambezi River in Zambia. This places Shackletons Lodge right in the middle of ‘Tiger Country’, the premier venue for trophy tigerfish. These rich tiger fishing grounds are less than 5 minutes by boat from the lodge. This very special part of the upper Zambezi is ‘Tiger Country’ because of the flood plains.
The annual flood into Zambezi floodplain rejuvenates and restocks the Zambezi river around Shackletons Tiger Fishing Lodge with all manner of life, making it the ideal place for fish to breed. Shackletons Fishing Lodge is ideally placed within this Tiger Country of the upper Zambezi floodplain, making it a premier venue for catching trophy Tiger fish.
