Fishing on Lake Naser

The main reason why we decided to visit Aswan was fishing. Lake Nasser one of the main destination for anglers from all around the world. Nile perch is one of the biggest fresh water fishes in the world growing up to 250 lb.
We thought it would be good idea to spend some time in total tranquility in the middle of desert on the river.
It sounds crazy but water is freezing cold with strong currents and air is about 105F with dusty wind.
Waves on the lake sometime reach 2m so sometimes it feels more like ocean then a lake. Lake connecting Egypt with Sudan. We had to travel about 6 hours from Aswan to fish. Our boat had two beds. We stayed not far from our main supply boat.
