Week 9
The ninth week is in the books. A group of six friends from the United States joined us and we started the week fishing the upper beats, experiencing good temperatures but low and crystal-clear water. The conditions made for technical fishing, pushing guides and fishermen to the limits; rigging longer leaders than usual and camouflaging lines from the fish was the key to success.
The regular upper beat was the most productive, where we caught fish in the 15-lb. range and one pacú. We found many dorado chasing sabalo, as well as solitary fish sitting in shallows where the skilled anglers managed to catch even some of the trickiest.
The camp gave us an amazing experience yet again, although on the last day of the week a storm hit us and the river got high and dirty.
