Where is the best place?
The Amazon basin is situated more or less astride the equator, so it doesn't have winter and summer seasons as temperate zone dwellers know them. Instead, the Amazon is subjected to dry and rainy seasons. These Amazon weather patterns circulate counterclockwise through the basin. As the dry season moves north, secondary and tertiary
tributaries of some of the Amazon's main arteries, (the Madeira, the Negro
and the Branco) will hold great concentrations of aggressive peacock bass.
The best locations to fish for them are typically well upriver from habitations
and deep-water access. The locals love to eat peacock bass and commercial gill-netters as well as subsistence fishermen can provide competiton for the
sporting angler. Areas with deep-water access allow commercial fishing
boats easy access to peacock bass. The sport fisheman will do best
travelling well into the headwaters of the smaller, shallower rivers.
The isolated lagoons and untouched structure in these areas provide superior
fishing grounds while the pristine surroundings and profound isolation
serve to greatly enhance the Amazon experience. Acute Angling knows
the destinations that will put you where the fish are and the crowds aren't.
