Crocodile fishing

Crocodile fishing is no longer a strange activity and appears in many tourist destinations. But here this experience makes a difference, because the crocodile is somewhat wilder. When you stand down to bring the bait-rod down they constantly jump up to catch. The game is full of adventure for those who are brave, but you are standing away from the high iron cage so you do not worry about safety. Just take care not to stand above the allowed range or put your hand over the iron fence.
