Falls Park Casting from the bank, or from rocky outcrops in the water, has brought the most success in the past.
Live bait is the most effective way around the surface jetsam.
Small fish for bait can be caught with worms, bread or the local cassava and millet dough. The most exciting place to fish is in the fast flowing waters above the falls and just below the falls. Nile perch have not always found above the falls. The falls stocking was made in 1954 when seven perch were transferred from the water below the falls. Further stockings were made over the next four years before the programs was discontinued because it was found that the perch could ascend into Lake Victoria through the turbines of the Owen Fall Dam.
