Fishing

The Amazon's Giant Peacock Bass have become one of the most sought after freshwater fish species in the world. Peacock bass are pound for pound arguably the most aggressive, hardest fighting fish on Earth. This colorful, acrobatic jungle species readily takes flies, poppers, jigs, and noisy top water lures aggressively, and offers an unparalleled experience for the most avid anglers. It's not uncommon for a fisherman to catch and release 20-30 peacock bass in a days fishing, not to mention, Payara, Bicuda, Piranha, Pacu, Redtails, Caparai, and several other exotic species you may net. The rivers and tributaries you'll be fishing are all "black water", which is the color of dark tea, caused by tannic acids. But best of all, because of this acid content, mosquitos are unable to breed, thus eliminating these pesky blood suckers.

Imagine you, your family, and or your best friends living this adventure in the heart of Brazil's Amazon's Rio Negro River, in a comfortable Yacht, fishing out of brand-new Quest 268 bass boats, powered by 100hp Mercury EFI outboards and equipped with MinnKota trolling motors. All the guides are Ribeirinhos (river people), born and raised in nearby villages, giving them the ability to know the fishing grounds so well, every inch and detail of Rio Negro and its tributaries. With years of experience, kind-hearted, and very helpful, they will become your best friend and will go all out to put you on your trophy Peacock Bass.

This is a 9-day trip, with 6 1/2 days of pure fishing fun. You'll find such comfort aboard that you'll almost forget you are navigating in the heart of the Amazon's Rain Forest. This 114 feet yacht has three decks, fully air-conditioned, with a total capacity of 40 guests. But to ensure high quality and personalized services, they only accommodate 14 guests per expedition.

On the main deck is the restaurant where you'll have all meals prepared by the onboard chef, an exclusive menu that's watchful to everyone's preferences. The suites are on the middle deck for total privacy. The upper deck is an air-conditioned lounge and opened-air bar for unforgettable moments and breathtaking scenery.

You will be met at the airport in Manaus Brazil, where you will take a private flight to Barcelos Brazil (about 1 hour flight), where you will board the yacht, have a quick lunch then head out for a half day of fishing excitement.
