Who Should Try This?
This activity is perfect for the following types of travellers:
Couples
Specifically designed for couples! Share a small boat, fish together, and enjoy a picnic on a sandbar. Very romantic and unique.
Families
Although marketed for couples, small families (2 adults + 1 child) can also book. The child will love the hands‑on fishing experience.
Solo Travelers
Solo travellers looking for a quiet, intimate activity can still book – just let the operator know you’re alone. They’ll take good care of you.
Nature Lovers
Chopdem’s river is rich in marine life. You’ll likely see mudskippers, crabs, and many bird species while waiting for a bite.
Content Creators
Document a ‘day in the life’ style video – from baiting to cooking your catch (if you choose). Very engaging for couples content.
Beginners
No fishing experience needed. The guide sets everything up and teaches you the ropes. It’s more about the experience than the catch.
