Kainji Lake (portion within Kainji Lake National Park) - fishing-restricted zone

Kainji Lake National Park (est. 1979, Niger and Kwara States) comprises three sectors: the Borgu Game Reserve, the Zugurma Game Reserve, and a part of the man-made Kainji Lake (a 136 km reservoir on the River Niger) in which fishing is restricted/prohibited. Underwater fishing (spearfishing) in this protected lake portion would fall under the park's general fishing prohibition. The representative point is on Kainji Lake along the eastern boundary of the Borgu sector (the lake separates the park's two non-contiguous sectors; the protected lake band lies west/adjacent to the Borgu sector in Borgu LGA, Niger State).
