Lake Kariba (Zambian side)

Large reservoir on the Zambezi shared by Zambia and Zimbabwe; a major recreational and sport angling destination (tigerfish, bream). Historically excluded from the standard annual inland fishing ban because it is a shared, jointly managed water body. No spearfishing-specific permission or prohibition is published; general Fisheries Act licence and gear rules apply.

Fishing licence required in declared fisheries management areas (Fisheries Act 2011 s.27). Spearfishing not specifically regulated. Prohibited methods of s.15 (explosives, firearms, poisons, electrical devices, certain nets) still apply.

Historically not covered by the standard 1 Dec - end Feb annual ban; confirm current-year notices.
