About Albert Falls Dam

Fishing Techniques
- For Mozambique tilapia
Tilapia are often skittish, so use light line and small hooks, and try chumming the water with bread crumbs or corn to attract them to your fishing spot.
- For Largemouth bass
Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.
- For Redbreast tilapia
Redbreast tilapia are often found near vegetation, so target those areas and use slow retrieves to entice strikes.
