Everything You Need for a Seamless Amazon & Argentina Fishing Adventure
Everything you need to plan, prepare for, and get the most out of your Amazon peacock bass fishing trip — from packing lists and travel paperwork to species identification and video walkthroughs of the water we fish. Browse by topic below.
Articles
Our blog covers the topics that matter most to Amazon anglers: peacock bass tactics, seasonal fishing reports, gear reviews, conservation efforts on the river, and stories from past trips. New articles are added regularly, so check back often or subscribe to our newsletter to get them delivered directly to your inbox.
Brazil eVisa
Travel to Brazil requires a visa, and we want to make that process as painless as possible. This section walks you through how to apply for your Brazil e-visa, what documents you'll need, current processing times, and answers to the most common questions we hear from travelers. Getting your paperwork sorted early means one less thing to think about before your trip. We also have a full tutorial on how to apply for your eVisa on our YouTube channel.
Species Guide
Know what's swimming beneath your boat. Our species guide covers the peacock bass and other gamefish you'll encounter on the Amazon, including identification tips, typical size and behavior, and where and how to target each one. It's a useful reference to study before your trip and to keep handy once you're on the water.
Video Resources
See the boats, the river, and the fishing before you ever leave home. Our video library includes footage from past trips, gear walkthroughs, casting and fly presentation tips for peacock bass, and a look at what a typical day on the water looks like. It's the next best thing to being there — and a good way to set expectations for what this trip really involves.
Trip Prep Guides
Planning a trip to the Amazon takes more than packing a rod and reel. Our trip prep guides cover what to bring, how to prepare physically, what the weather and water conditions will be like during your travel dates, and what to expect once you're on board. Whether this is your first trip to Brazil or your fifth, these guides are built to answer the questions anglers actually ask us before they go.
