GENERAL
INFORMATION:
Dorado fly fishing in Salta: a real adventure trip,
only for those fisherman who love wilderness and are
avid to seek for new fly fishing experiencies. Here,
it is not weird to come across toucans flying up, thousands
of butterflies of different sizes and exotic colors,
footprints of tapirs and pumas, corzulas, mount pigs,
and even anteaters!
In this new program, you will have the chance to
Del Valle river and mainly the Dorado river
that flows through the yungas (warm rainforests), forming
big pools and riffles where the fighting Dorado, the
tiger of the rivers, is found. The most interesting
thing about Dorado fishing here is that fishing is done
by wading crystal clear waters, almost imposible
in other destinations. Moreover, the Dorados are hardfighting,
wild jumping and brilliantly colored.
The average of the Dorados -in Del Valle and Dorado
rivers- is around 8 pounds, fished with lightweight
tackle, # 5 rods. Some 20 pound Dorado can be find to.
You will see them, not easy, but possible.
