The 2009 trips will be operated
by Amazon Fringe Expeditions, usinge their proven exploratory technique
of total immersion in the fishery. Nothing fancy. Simple tents,
riverbank camping and barbecued fish and meat with rice and beans.
We’ll carry our camp with us as we wend our way through the descending
river’s changing environments. With this simplicity comes extreme
mobility and flexibility. Six groups, with eight anglers per group
will experience this amazing land that time forgot.
If you’re not afraid to rough it and you’re looking for some unique fishing
excitement, then join us next January and February, 2009 on the upper Travessão
and fish this angler's paradise.
Note - All river/date combinations
are based on expected water level conditions. Sometimes the weather
causes dry seasons to begin a little earlier or later than usual.
If the seasons shift, it is possible that we may elect to fish other rivers
during some of the dates shown to optimize fishing conditions and take
advantage of the best water levels.
