Welcome to the Pai Piranha Fishing Park<br /><br /><br />My names Dave and I'm the proud owner of the Pai Piranha Fishing Park & Guesthouse located in the foothills above Pai in Northern <br />Thailand.<br /><br />After living in Pai for 14 years I decided 8 years ago it was time to follow my passion and create this fantastic park only 5 minutes from<br />Mhor Paeng Waterfall and 10 minutes from the City Centre.<br /><br />To find me all you have to do is follow the signs from the Pai Hospital, staying on the same road for approximately 7km.<br /><br />The road is well signed so you should have no problems. <br /><br />PARK OPEN'S AT 10AM AND CLOSES AT 6PM<br /><br />The fishing park consists of 2, good size ponds that I intend to make in to 1 large pond very soon and a family run Guesthouse all set in a beautiful mountain side location.<br /><br />We have been lucky enough to recieve plenty of good reveiws on trip advisor and have been voted No:2 best thing to do in Pai.<br />

<br />
Once in a while we run fishing trips down to Chaing Mai's Bo Sang Lake, these prove not only to be a good excuse to get very drunk (big Leo beer at this place is only 50B a bottle) but also to catch some huge fish...<br />
<br />
Over the past 4 years that I have been fishing here we have never failed to catch, and some days we have to bring the rods in out of pure exhaustion.<br />
<br />
Bo Sang to the Thais is stocked primarily with giant Mekon catfish and stripped catfish, both these variety's are extremely hard fighting and often smash through the tackle we use. The average size of these monsters is between 8 and 20kg but sometimes we do hook into something a lot bigger. The lake record is around the 35kg mark but the biggest I've ever seen is 22kg (48lb)..but whatever size fish you catch, it's great fun...<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 180%;">Please note fishing exsperiance is vital for these trips</span><br />
<br />
The tour's that I run normally start off from Pai at 6 in the morning, so we arrive at the lake at around 9. We normally try to arrange it this way so you can do your fishing trip on the day you are leaving Pai and therefore don't have to return back up the mountain and get travel sick more than is necessary......!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
All trips include: pick up from your Guesthouse to the lake and drop off in Chaing Mai, Full set of quality fishing equipment, all the bait (which is often quite a lot) and the entrance fee to the lake. Also a picnic style pack lunch is supplied.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 180%; font-weight: bold;">Prices</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<ul>
<li> Single person 2000B</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> 2 people 1800B each </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> 3 people 1600B each<span id="formatbar_Buttons" style="display: block;"><span class="" id="formatbar_Italic" style="display: block;" title="Italic"><img alt="Italic" border="0" class="gl_italic" src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" /></span></span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li> 4 people 1300B each </li>
</ul>
</div>
We take a maximum of 4 people otherwise it can get very difficult, especially if everyone has a fish on at the same time. These prices are for the full day's fishing 9am to 5pm.<br />
<br />
If you are staying in Chaing Mai then the price will be reduced accordingly. But please note that we only come down to Chaing Mai if there is 3 or more that wish to go fishing.<br />
