Pluma Lodge
Week 1
Here at Pluma, we are starting the 13th season with the visit of a big group of friends, Oscar, Sven and their father Olof. Joining them were Dave and Ankee, and another dad and son, Chris and Nick.
Conditions were great, with the typical season-opening first baitfish runs. We saw some muddy water conditions due to rains in the headwaters for about two and a half days, but then it was clear the rest of the week.
We landed one fish over 20 pounds, with many more jumped or simply lost for typical reasons. The team landed many fish of around 14 pounds.
The lower Pluma and the Sècure brought the best conditions, especially in the first two days of low water after the rains.
After the first half of the week the main Pluma was very productive. We enjoyed the chance to sight cast to more than 10 feeding frenzies of huge packs of dorado as they were killing sábalo. It was awesome to say at least!
Itirizama, being the smallest environment, still presented with cold water and very technical fishing. But it always brings the bonus of having the most beautiful scenery in the entire national park.
We are excited and looking forward to a great season to come.
