St
Louis
Situated on Senegal's Northern most border, surrounded by
the mighty Atlantic Ocean to the west, Mauritania to the north
and one of the most fertile wetlands in the world to the east,
St Louis is a sportsmans paradise. Both shooters and fishermen
alike will find plenty to keep them entertained, a huge selection
of options, ensure you will always find something to fill
a week or even a fortnight.
- Bluewater fishing:
During the summer June to Dec, large groups of Migratory
Marlin and Sailfish run down the Senegalese coast, along
with Dorado, Tuna and Sharks. This adds up to an excellent
sport fishery . A direct shipping channel has been cut through
the sand bar allowing access to the Bluewater within 10kms
of the dock , this means with our fast 28ft boats , you
are fishing within 15mins. Brand new international class
gear has been used to equip all the boats and 2 international
Guides are skippering the boats.
- Nile Perch fishing:
From May to July is the peak season for these hard battling
freshwater predators. River perch may not grow as large
as, but they certainly fight harder that their lake dwelling
brothers and a 20lb fish on light gear can be a challenge
for even the most experienced sportsman. Their head shaking
leaps are legend and long fights are commonplace bearing
in mind that fish up to 120lbs have been taken on the Rapalas.
Fly fishing for Perch, Tigerfish and Tilapia can be an afternoons
diversion amongst the huge weed beds that fringe the river.
We can offer combination packages to include both bluewater
and Nile perch fishing trips, at unbelievable prices.
Toubakota
Your day begins collecting tackle from the fishing centre
and boarding your boat via the purpose built 200ft Jetty,

Between July and October the West African coast is home to

not to mention Dorado, Tuna and Kingfish. Les Paletuviers

on a 1 day or 3 day basis in order to target the bluewater
drop offs 25 miles offshore. Fishing Teasers, Panamas and
Livebaits you can be expected to hit into hard fighting species
all along the 50mt line and beyond. All tackle is supplied
with drinks and lunch included.
Pirogues are the traditional local craft of the area and
make perfect Creek fishing platforms with plenty of space
for Trolling, Bait fishing or Lure fishing in amongst the
Mangroves. Shark, Snapper, Captainfish, Tarpon, Barracuda
and Trevally are all to be found in
abundance in these areas. The clear calm waters offer the
perfect environment, for an enjoyable day for fishermen and
family alike. All tackle can be provided however for the light
tackle enthusiasts amongst us it may be better to take some
along.
