Fishing in Thailand is becoming increasingly popular every year. Thailand’s waters are home to many IGFA world records. The lakes and waters hold many different species, some that are native to Thailand and others that have been introduced. One thing is for certain though, these fish reach astronomical sizes. Any angler travelling to Thailand can be rest assured that they will have the chance to lock themselves into battle with some dinosaur like fish.
The beautiful Gillhams fishing lake resort is located in the stunning area of Krabi Southern Thailand and is surrounded by limescale Karsts which are covered in a protected tropical rain forest. The resort can cater for single anglers, pairs, groups and we can also arrange full lake exclusivity.
Exclusive to Sportquest Holidays, we have teamed up with our guides in Thailand and we are very pleased to be able to offer you this very unique chance of fishing for lots of different species from different lakes around the magnificent city of Bangkok. One day you could be fishing for 140kg Arapaima, the next Alligator Gar to 30kg.
Thailand is an amazing place and with all the different species of fish that live there, we thought it was time to offer them to you. We have access to the one and only Predator Lake, which offers anglers the chance to do battle with such fish as Arapaima and the famous Redtail Catfish that grow to gigantic sizes.
Thailand is home to vast amounts of man-made lakes and these lakes are home to the fish that anglers will be flying out to catch. When a freshwater angler thinks of Thailand they will no doubt have images in their minds of fishing in Jurassic looking landscapes, surrounded by deep green flora and fauna with towering mountains in view shrouding these lakes in mystery.
We see many British anglers journeying to this stunning land, all ready to catch some truly astounding species, and these species are massive in size. One such popular fish is the Siamese Carp. This fish is one that many Carp anglers specifically want to target due to the fact it reaches sizes in excess of 150lb.
It is not only Siamese Carp that appeal to anglers, the chance of hooking a prehistoric Arapaima is a big possibility. These incredible fish reach sizes over the 500lb mark from a freshwater lake. Just imagine the battle you will be locked into if you hook one of these. Other species can also be found in these waters, including the Red Tailed Catfish, Arrowana, Giant Gourami, Mahseer and even the hard fighting silver king that is the Tarpon.
