What do we have to offer ?
Creek Fishing
You have a choice between a day fishing or relaxing on one of our authentic African Pirogeus or taking a trip up the river to have lunch at Lamin Lodge before being returned to Denton Bridge for transport to your hotel or appartment.
Both our Pirogues are ideal for families or couples alike, but the single person will find themselves in good company and will be entertained by our experienced crew.
Join us on board and enjoy a peaceful day fishing or just relax and enjoy cruising the creeks and river Gambia.We guarantee calm waters and offer the very best chances of catching fish.
Don't forget our No Fish No Pay policy.
The African Pirogue is the ideal boat to spend a nice day on the creeks and the river, especially if you prefer to relax and have a peaceful day in calm waters with no hassle and a minimum musclepower.If this is the way you intended to spend your holiday then Creekfishing with Lady Parrie Fishing is definitely for you!
Because of the big variety of fish, you will never be sure what your next fish will be, but every day we catch between 8 and 13 different species with over 50 species being recorded in these waters.Many of the species caught at sea are found in these creeks albeit smaller specimens, as the creeks are ideal spawning grounds for some of the record breaking fish caught in the river mouth and at sea.
Creekfishing is ideal for everyone, including those inclined to suffer from seasickness and the squamish among us who would prefer not to handle bait or touch fish, as our friendly and happy crew will bait your hook, remove your fish and assist you with everything you require while on board.
You will be entertained by the Captain and crew as they prepare your lunch and serve cold beverages whilst also organising a few competitions for smallest and largest fish, first fish and the one the men hate, the most fish as this is the one the ladies tend to excel at.
The boats are fully equipped and have woven sunshades to protect you from the sun and toilets to give you some privacy if you are suffering the after effects of the night before or even Banjul belly.
There is plenty of space to fish, sunbathe or just enjoy the scenery and wildlife.Our crew will try to assist the birdwatchers amongst you to identify the many beautiful species you may see.
