Outdistance the Competition 
COMFORTABLE
FLOATING CABINS
  • New Water Daily
  • Very Remote and Isolated
  • Mobile Floating Bungalows


Although our focus is first and foremost on the absolute best in angling quality,  we accompany the great fishing with great service, air- conditioned comfort, delicious food and fascinating side trips. 
They literally outdistance the competition

River Plate's Fly-In Floating Cabins are the perfect fishing tools, providing headwaters access, mobility, comfort and luxury.  River Plate selects locations with productive secluded lagoons, hours away on the fastest bass boats from the melee of competing house boats and lodges congregated on the Rio Negro's main channel water ways.  On arrival from the US, you travel directly to one of five Floating Cabin camps via a new, state-of-the-art, 8 passenger Cessna Caravan turbo prop floatplane, effectively eliminating daily 3-5 hour boat travel or expensive daily Fly-Outs.

What you'll find when you arrive are fully carpeted, tastefully decorated Cabins, with every detail carefully considered.  At the 12' x 23' dinning/sitting lounge, you'll dine on linen table cloths enjoying the chef's four course meals.  Fresh breads and pastries are baked daily and chilled wines, ice-cold beer, soft drinks, and Brazilian-style Caipirinhas flow freely throughout your fishing trip. Each of the Floating Cabin operations are managed by a knowledgeable fisherman, experienced in handling the logistics inherent in Amazon fishing operations.  Since the groups are small, the staff and  bilingual host offer uniquely personalized hands-on attention.  Breakfast room service, laundry service and guest satellite phone are a few of the available amenities. 

What you won't find are many pesky bugs. The pristine rivers they fish have naturally high tannin levels (from extensive leaf decay) which discourage the development of biting insects.  You fish from a fully equipped, 18 foot shallow draft bass boat, two anglers and one guide per boat.  Come challenge the mighty peacock bass and leave the crowds behind.
