Weekly Summary
The Scene:
Week 5 at Kendjam unfolded under perfect conditions, with clear and inviting waters. Our esteemed guests were blessed with the ideal setting for an extraordinary fishing adventure. Fishing in general was fantastic, and perfect for sight fishing with topwater flies, from dries to poppers!
Key Highlights:
- Steve Duckett’s Triumph: At 85, the legendary angler and fly tier Steve Duckett graced Kendjam with his presence once more. His special fly worked its magic again, landing a magnificent 92 cm wolf fish. A testament to skill and perseverance, Steve’s catch was a highlight for all.
- Italian Invasion: A seasoned group of anglers from Italy joined us, bringing with them a wealth of experience and enthusiasm. Their prowess was evident as they reeled in an impressive number of beautiful fish.

Highlight of the Week:
The pinnacle of the week was undoubtedly the rare capture of a Pacu Capivara, a species nearly extinct in Brazil. This remarkable event added an extra layer of excitement to an already thrilling week. Another incredible highlight was the number of predator fish attacking smaller species when hooked. This week, we witnessed two wolf fish attacking a peacock bass, a monster bicuda eating and jumping with a smaller bicuda, and a monster redtail catfish trying to eat a peacock bass. Last but not least, another wolf fish smashed a small matrinxã! Truly wild!
