Early Season
The water becomes fishable, crystal clear, and low from June through the rest of the season.
Our early season starts in mid/late June and has some of the most attractive fishing to our anglers, as fish are feeding aggressively in the lower tributaries of the river.
The sight fishing is incredible for matrincha and all species of pacu. These fish are looking for insects, fruits, and nuts, and readily take all imitations thrown by our anglers. Along the rocky shores, we find bigger, hungrier peacock bass and lots of bicuda in bigger runs. As far as the bicuda goes, this is the best time to fish for them.
In these weeks we can fish both wet wading and also from the boats since we have easy access to many different kinds of waters. The weather is perfect because of the bright, sunny days and pleasantly calm evenings.
Mid Season
Our mid season runs from mid July to mid August.
The river becomes easy to wade in many areas and it is the perfect time for sight fishing for peacock bass, matrincha, pacu, and more.
The water gets perfect for wet wading in most areas, and we find some perfect access to small jungle creeks for big wolffish.
The fishing for pacus and matrincha on the shallow flats and runs becomes unbelievable in our mid season.
Weather has some warm days and cooler nights with a slight breeze during the middle of the day.
Late Season
Our late season runs from mid August to mid September.
These are the months where our water is incredibly low and clear, a perfect habitat for wet wading!
We use the skiffs mostly to allow us to move from spot to spot, and sight fish once we arrive at our destination.
We find lots of peacock bass in deeper runs and flats full of fast, moving water.
We fish for matrincha and pacu in the bigger water and the deeper river banks.
The wolffish will feed aggressively on poppers and big streamers, one of the coolest ways to fish for them in shallow water.
The weather is hot with slight breezes and some very pleasant nights.
