previous page Get ready to tackle these toothy game fish as the season begins now in September as these ferocious fighters begin their spawning period.  For those of you have never visited the vast shore of Lake Jozini, (also known as Pongolapoort) I encourage you to do so.This corner of God's earth doesn't only offer the angler a variety of quarry, but it also rich in bird and animal life both in the water and on the land. Get ready to tackle these toothy game fish as the season begins now in September as these ferocious fighters begin their spawning period. We recently had the opportunity of visiting Shayamoya, and let me tell you I was once again pleasantly surprised by the hospitality of the lodge, the comfort of the rooms and best of all the amazing food the chef prepares, especially the suppers.
We arrived at Shayamoya on probably the coldest winter's day recorded in Zululand in at least the last decade, planning to catch some tigers to kick off the newly revamped ESA freshwater show. Yip, winter for tigers!!!

Anyway as luck would have it the next morning we were greeted with clear skies, a slight chill in the air and once on Lake Jozini, hungry tigers. Yip you read that correctly, the tigers were hungry and wasted no time in attacking our spoons. In fact I have yet to experience a better day on the Lake and I mostly only fish it during the hot summer months when the tigers are known to feed best.
