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 make a two days floating trip and a full day wading. Juramento river, Del Valle river and Dorado river 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 5 pounds, fished with lightweight tackle, # 5 rods.

Fishing Juramento river, is where we are going to find the biggest ones: between 10 to 20 pounds. Floating it, will let us reach the hot spots and give the chance to fish this giant Dorados. In this case, you will need a # 8 rod. Try us, you'll never forget this experience. Come to fly fish for Dorado.
