Few experiences rival the heart-pounding moment a golden dorado erupts on your lure. Known for their power, aggression, and signature gold-and-black coloration, these apex predators make every cast an opportunity for excitement. This is a golden dorado fishing destination where action comes fast—anglers often land 10 to 30 fish a day when conditions are right.
Lure anglers and fly fishers alike can thrive here. While spinning and baitcasting gear is provided, fly anglers should bring their own equipment. From twitchy topwater retrieves to baitfish streamers stripped through current seams, every technique can be productive in these rich waters. And with a variety of supporting species occasionally showing up—including wolfish and small payara—you never know what the next bite might bring.
Your floating lodge is purpose-built for comfort and convenience. With a maximum of 9 anglers, you'll enjoy a quiet, personalized atmosphere onboard. Each suite features air conditioning, comfortable bedding, private bathrooms, and scenic views of the Paraná. The dining room and shaded balcony provide relaxing places to unwind after long fishing days, enjoy delicious cuisine such as Argentinian wine, milanesas, empanadas, dulce de leche, and asado waiting each night.
Daily laundry, ample storage, and a fully stocked cooler on each fishing boat ensure you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable and productive week on the water.
