| ACCOMMODATION |
 TENAHEAD
MOUNTAIN LODGE |
  Tenahead Mountain Lodge is located high in the
Drakensbergs in 3,500 hectares of unspoilt mountains, valleys and streams. It is the
perfect place to relax, fish, and hike during a holiday to South Africa and it is highly
suited to non-fishing partners. The lodge is 60 kilometres from Rhodes.
Accommodation is in very comfortable rooms in the lodge with private bathrooms. All
meals, snacks, teas and coffees, game drives, spotlight game drives at night, horse riding and
transfers to and from Rhodes are included.
The area around the lodge boasts some of the finest rainbow trout, brown trout and yellowfish
fishing in the country. Rhodes, Barkly East, Maclear and surrounding areas have over
1000km of fishable water on more than 12 different rivers. Trout were introduced into
these river systems over 80 years ago and now breed naturally, they average between 10 and 14
inches, but fish of 6 to 10 pounds have been caught. A good number of streams, below
7000ft above sea level have a run of yellowfish from October to March. The trout season
is from 1 September to 31 May. |
