Having been in Pai, Northern Thailand, for 10 years I decided it was time to follow my passion and open a fishing park in the hills.The park has now been open for 5 years and is doing very well. Piranha Park is situated 5 minutes from Mhor Peng waterfall and only 10 minutes from the town of Pai. To find us follow the signs from the Hospital, staying on the same road for approximately 7km, it's very well sign posted all the way so you should have no problems.The fishing park consists of 3 ponds and a family run guesthouse. All set in a peaceful mountain side location.

Fishing
Fishing costs 150 baht for a full day, over 5 hours including full set of fishing equipment. Alternatively 30 baht per hour. If you have your own fishing equipment, the cost will be reduced to 100 baht per day or 20 baht per hour per day. Fishing is free when you stay at the guesthouse, but you must purchase your bait.
With over 18 varieties of fish stocked and 30 years of fishing experience, you are sure to have a good day out, and lets face it, where else can you catch a piranha in such a beautiful location!

Eating and Drinking
We have a large selection of western and thai food available in our new resturant, including our world famous full English breakfast along with a few other tasty treats...
As for drinking, well you know that fishing without a beer is highly illegal in Thailand so we have designed our bar around you needs, so you may easily fish while your sat at the bar. Happy Days.. Also GIN n TONIC'S are a fixed price of 50baht all year round...

Park opening hours 10a.m. to 7p.m. daily.

During the low season March to September the park opens at 12 midday and closes at 7pm.

All bungalows are fully equipped with TV, satellite and DVD player, remote ceiling fans and personal bathroom, with hot showers.
2 rooms have there own inbuilt shared kitchen. .
Free pickup and drop off from Pai if you are staying at the guesthouse so don't struggle with that heavy rucksack. But we do recommend you hire your own motorbike as we are 7km out of town.

PiranhaPark Fishing Tours To Chaing Mai

Piranha Park Fishing Tours To Chaing Mai

Once in a while we run fishing trips down to Chaing Mai's Paradise 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...

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.

Paradise Lake or 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...

Please note fishing exsperiance is vital for these trips

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......!!!!!!!

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.

Prices

Single person 2400B

2 people 2000B each

3 people 1800B each

4 people 1500B each

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.

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.
