Where We Fish: Argentina on the Uruguay River below the Salto Grande Dam.

Amazon Fishing Offered: Trophy Golden Dorado Fishing - A fishing treasure, one gleaming in gold, awaits at the Argentine-Uruguayan border. The freshwater dorado is causing “gold fever” for the anglers who have had the fortunate opportunity to fish for them and have others clamoring to prospect for them under the Salto Grande dam. From its inception, the fantastic fishing destination referred to as “La Zona” has earned the deserved reputation of being home to the largest freshwater golden dorados found anywhere in the world. More record class fish have come from this fishery than any other fishable waters in South America.

The lodge, based from an estancia (ranch) just minutes from the water, is nestled in idyllic surroundings draped in palm and eucalyptus trees, making it the perfect place to unwind after an enjoyable day on the water. The lodge boasts a private pool to shed the day's heat and to relax sore muscles before a lavish and hearty supper is served. There are 4 air conditioned private rooms, each with its own private bathroom. Included in the package are delicious meals, cocktails and excellent Argentine wines.

Boat - Lodging: Anglers will be accommodated at an Argentinean estanchia, a beautiful ranch five minutes from the river. Delectable chef prepared meals and drinks are included.
