In the East African plateau, there is a very old lake. It was discovered in 1860-1863 by British explorers John Hanning Speck and Grant while searching for the source of the Nile, and the two explorers then named the lake after Queen Victoria. With an area of 694,000 km², Lake Victoria is the largest lake in Africa and the second largest freshwater lake in the world. The fish resources are very rich, and there are more than 200 kinds of fish living in the lake, rich in sea bass and tilapia.
Since Lake Victoria does not suffer from industrial pollution, there is no overfishing. Therefore, the abundance of fish and shrimp in the river is staggering, and simply using simple fishing tools will make you catch a full catch. Delicious river prawns, simply flooding. A few people can easily catch thousands of pounds at a time with a net pocket, which really makes countless foodies incomparably fascinated.
The tilapia abundant in the lake is the main fish species made locally. Smoked fish are processed in a very backward way, and the strong smell of fireworks will make you feel like you have traveled through thousands of years. Perhaps it is precisely because of the backwardness of fishing and processing technology that Lake Victoria has been well preserved.
This simple smoked fish workshop is already very clean. Most of the processed smoked fish is sold to tourists who come to visit. This is also considered an African entrepreneur, a very economically minded person.
The smoked fish is very chewy, and if the teeth are not good, it will be sinful. These smoked fish are already very clean, and some of the smoked fish workshops are filthy and outrageous.
In addition to the native fish, there are also a large number of Nile perch in Lake Victoria. The Nile perch is one of the 100 most influential invasive species in the world, and the large-scale and ferocious Nile perch wipes out the native fish of Lake Victoria.
The African people, who wanted to introduce Nile perch to eliminate the small radishes, did not expect to lure wolves into the house. Nile perch, which has no natural enemies, quickly gained a foothold in Lake Victoria and multiplied wildly, and the fast growth rate and terrible amount of Nile perch ate hundreds of native fish on Lake Victoria to "extinguish the door".
As adults, the Nile perch can reach a size of 2 meters and weigh a terrifying 400 pounds, making it one of the largest freshwater fish in the world. Alarmed, African governments began calling for greater fishing and inviting anglers from around the world to come fishing. In this way, it is attempted to eliminate flooded Nile perch in order to save the Lake Victoria ecosystem that has been eaten by Nile perch.
Anglers from all over the world then flock to Lake Victoria to swim in the flooded water giants. Flooded Nile perch have begun to prey on their own kind due to insufficient food. Therefore, it is very easy to catch. Suddenly, Lake Victoria became a paradise for Lua lovers all over the world.
The Nile perch is huge and surprisingly powerful. Ordinary fishing gear cannot be subdued at all, and it is necessary to use very strong fishing gear equipment. In particular, Nile perch will jump out of the water to wash their gills wildly after being hooked, and as long as the fishing rod line is not strong enough, the result is an instant second break.
Because of the thrill of catching Nile perch, the famous extreme angler Jeremy Verde was also attracted to the past. He also caught a giant Nile perch on Lake Victoria and aired on the Trolls in the River. In an instant, the blood of Chinese anglers who are still competing with a few pounds or even a few pairs of perch in China is stimulated, and countless anglers finally begin to set their sights on foreign countries.
However, it was too late, and the overfishing and surge in anglers led to a sharp decline in Nile perch populations on Lake Victoria. At this time, many native fish in Lake Victoria have been "wiped out", and if the Nile perch is completely eliminated, then there will be no fish in the lake to catch embarrassing situation. Desperate African governments began to protect Nile perch again, so the numbers began to rise again. Interested anglers, be sure to try such challenging big fish!
