Mae Ngat Dam is located 85 km northwest of Chiang Mai, and is part of the spectacular Sri Lanna Nationalpark. We fish here for the Giant Snakehead and Hampala Barb also called Jungle Perch. Snakehead fishing will provide a challenge to anglers who enjoy fishing with lures. Precise casting with surface lures, like Pencils, Poppers and Buzzbaits, is essential as you will always fish in areas with flooded trees and other snags.
However, the sudden explosiveness of the strike will excite even the most experienced fishermen.We provide spinning reels and rods and lures for our guests, but anglers who wish to use a baitcaster, or who want to try their hand at fly fishing, will have to bring their own tackle. It is also recommended that you bring, during the raining season, wet weather clothing along with you. We offer full day and multiple daytrips, with accomodation on floating Houseboats (Rafts).
