PEACOCK BASS FISHING
ON THE AMAZON RIVER IN BRAZIL
THE OTTER
Your home in the jungle will be a very nice, diesel-powered, triple deck houseboat with air conditioned cabins and private baths. There are many nice houseboats available to us in Manaus, but we are currently using the OTTER due to its shallow draft and its ability to enter the more remote fishing areas. You will enjoy threes meals daily featuring a mixture of American and native Brazilian dishes, have access to an open bar each evening where you can relax and discuss the day's fishing with your new friends, and end your trip with a barbecue steak dinner on the houseboat's open-air top deck while you listen to a myriad of sounds coming from the rain forest. It's so comfortable that many anglers bring their wives!
You will begin each morning with a 5 a.m. wake-up call and a cup of steaming coffee just in time to see sunrise on the Amazon and watch the jungle awaken. After breakfast, your guide will meet you, ready to begin the day's fishing adventure.
What will it be? Lagoons? River points? A small tributary stream? A flooded backwater? They are all here and each produces exciting peacock action! You will have until noon to fish your choices.
Back on the houseboat for lunch, you will also have time to check lines and sharpen hooks, or simply relax in your cabin. The in mid-afternoon, you will head out again for several more hours of tackle-testing excitement for this is when many of the biggest fish are caught!
Sunset will find you returning to the houseboat for a refreshing shower, a cocktail, an excellent dinner, and the chance to once again surrender yourself to the en escapable thrill of the rain forest.
