Shop For Your Next Tanzania Fly Fishing Adventure
Perhaps the most adventurous of any program Yellow Dog offers, Tanzania is an incredibly remote and wild destination. Anglers should be well prepared to make this trip, as this destination is the definition of off-the-grid in terms of access to gear. Large, predatory tigerfish with razor sharp teeth can make quick work of flies, so anglers should pack appropriately.
Having extensively traveled and fly fished the world, we are the industry’s foremost authority on destination-specific equipment, gear, and flies. Over a week of fishing in Tanzania, anglers can expect to pursue one of fly fishing's most tenacious predators: the tigerfish. If you are fishing for less than five days, we recommend a bare minimum of twelve flies or a more adequate selection of twenty-four flies.
What Sizes and Colors? Baitfish flies in the 2/0-4/0 range in a variety of dark and light colors. Flies should be tied on high-quality hooks such as the Tiemco 600 SP or Gamakatsu SC15.
Over time, dirt, grime, and other contaminants can accumulate on your fly line, which can negatively impact your casting performance. A dirty fly line can stick to your guides and drag through the water, resulting in poor casting distance and accuracy. Regularly cleaning your fly line can help extend its lifespan. Dirt and other contaminants can cause the coating on your fly line to degrade faster, leading to cracks and other damage that can weaken the line. A clean fly line can help you detect subtle strikes and improve your overall fishing experience.
