Trip Preparation Guides

Everything You Need for a Seamless Amazon & Argentina Fishing Adventure

Planning an expedition with Acute Angling is about more than just booking your dates — it’s about preparing for one of the greatest adventures of your life. To make your journey smooth, safe, and stress-free, we’ve created detailed Trip Preparation Guides for each of our destinations.

These guides are designed to give you all the information you need in one place — from visas and flights to what to pack and how to get the most out of your fishing days.

What’s Inside Each Guide

Our Trip Preparation Guides cover every detail of your adventure, including:

  • Travel Requirements — Visa instructions, flight planning, and travel insurance tips.

  • The Experience — What to expect at your lodge, mothership, or bungalows, plus key features of each trip.

  • Tipping Guidelines — Clear recommendations so you can plan ahead.

  • Species Resources — Links to our in-depth articles and species guides to help you understand and prepare for the fish you’ll target.
