FLY FISHING

CORRIENTES

The ultimate fishing destination in Argentina, El Dorado Lodge. Located in northern Argentina on the dense, jungle banks of the Upper Paraná River, the natural boundary dividing Argentina and Paraguay. 

This large, clear-water river holds healthy numbers of golden Dorado, Pacu, and Pirá pitá.  The upper Paraná ranks as the most prolific fish numbers, and opportunities for large dorado, and other exotic species on the fly. Not only will anglers sight cast to golden dorado, but the dry fly fishing for Pirá pitá and Pacú can be phenomenal. Pinti is recognized by locals as a pioneer for fly flshing the upper Paraná River, which has allowed him to select an elite team of guides and strategically locate the lodge on the most productive section of the river.

The Fishing

A typical day of fishing on the Rio Paraná involves two sessions: morning (7:00 am to 12:00 pm) and afternoon (3:15 pm to 7:30-8:00 pm). Fishing for dorado is most productive early or late in the day, with overcast days being favorable. Sight-fishing for dorado, Pirá pitá, and Pacú in the clear waters is enjoyable. The river offers various structures for exploration, and using streamers can yield big catches (20–30 pounds). Anglers primarily use floating lines and lightly weighted streamers, with an 8-9 weight rod for dorado and a 6-7 weight for Pirá pitá. Pacú, selective eaters, are pursued with floating fruit flies. Opportunities for 20 lb. or larger catches exist, with rare 40 lb. fish. In a week, skilled anglers can expect action on all three species and chances for double-digit catches.
