Freshwater fishing in Phuket

Thai Fishing Guide has now secured the sole agency
of a new freshwater fishing El Dorado in Phuket.

Striped Catfish.

Par Lai Lake is without a doubt the most idyllic and beautiful
fishing park in Thailand with tropical vegetation along the banks
of the main lake and all of its smaller channels.

Another bonus is that the lake hasn't been fished
for several years, making the fish curious and not hook-shy.


Giant Snakehead.
 
Pacu.

Not only do we guarantee fish but a good chance
of catching a large variety of species, some of which
are not found elsewhere in Thailand.

These include: Indo-Pacific Tarpon, Giant Gourami,
Snakeskin Gourami, Tilapia, Great Snakehead,
Giant Snakehead, Striped Catfish, Giant Mekong Catfish,
Silver Shark, several species of Pacu, Carp and Barb.

Soft Shell Turtle.

 
Striped Catfish.

Striped Catfish are the speciality of this park
with the lake holding several potential world records.
The current IGFA world record for this species is 10.4 kg.
Thai Fishing Guide clients have already, on several occasions,
landed bigger fish than this but have never claimed the record.

Any thoughts of getting your name in the IGFA world record book?
Join Us and Try Your Luck!

 
 
Potential World Record - Striped Catfish.

During high season (November - March), we offer guided
fly fishing sessions on request, for anglers interested
in Indo-Pacific Tarpon, Red Bellied Pacu and Snakehead.

These species are usually targeted using a 7 to 9 weight rod
loaded with a sinking line and a 30 lb leader tippet.

The most productive flies for these species are white
and green or only white fish imitations with flash.

Indo-Pacific Tarpon.

It is also possible to target Giant Gourami
using dry flies from certain spots in this park.

In this case the flies should be white, brown, green
or a combination of these colours.

Please note that fly fishing equipment is not provided
and you should therefore bring along your own equipment.

All facilities are also right on the bank including restaurants,
snack and drink stands, rest rooms and even
an aquarium where you can have a look
at some of the species found in the lake.

Red Bellied Pacu.
