Clear Blackwater Fishery

Winter 2009 Fly-in - RioTapera

Plan Ahead - This trips fills up quickly. Beautiful white sand beaches with "Jurassic Park" surrounding jungle. Very clear black water. Great for fly fishermen and plug casters alike.

Fantastic daily catch averages (25 - 50 or more peacocks per day) with an average size of about 6 pounds. Tapera River trips have furnished some of the best peacock fishing in the Amazon. This river provides great numbers, huge fish and the most beautiful scenery outside of paradise. We've hosted groups of 8 anglers each, that caught over 2,200 peacocks for the week (an average of 275 fish per angler!), with several peacocks weighing over 22-lbs.
