| Xeriuini River - Enclosed within Brazil's
largest ecological preserve, the Xeriuini was closed to fishing for
a decade. The river was reopened in '2000 for catch and release fishing
only, making it a virtual virgin fishery. Peacocks here unabashedly
and violently attack baits, making for truly exciting fishing. Boasting
an extraordinarily high percentage of medium to large peacocks, Macaroca
provides a uniquely satisfying fishing experience for beginners and experts
alike.
The rustic lodges are spacious and comfortable and the excellent staff makes sure that guests are comfortable and well-fed. Both the lower and upriver facility provide great flexibility and access to optimal water levels. Tannin stained, clear water enables excellent surface action with explosive topwater strikes. The Xeriuini is a premier fly fishing river. Excellent daily catch averages (15 - 30 or more peacocks per day). Fish in the teens are common and fish over 22 pounds have been taken here. |
 |
| Note - All river/date shedules are based on expected seasonal water level conditions. Nature, however, can be unpredictable. Sometimes dry seasons begin earlier or later than usual. Macaroca Lodge has access to hundreds of miles of the Xeriuini River. If conditions in the region are unacceptable for fishing at any time, we may elect to reschedule the dates shown to optimize fishing conditions. Clients will be provided the opportunity to attend a rescheduled trip (raincheck) or may be offered the option to shift to a trip on a different fishery during the dates originally selected, conditions permitting. |
