Adventure Fishing
“Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.”
Researchers have found well over 400 species of fish in the Rupununi. This high species richness results in part from the bio-geographical links between the Amazon and Essequibo drainage systems. In times of high water, levels during the annual rainy season (May-September) the Essequibo and Rupununi are linked to the Amazon drainage basin via a watershed portal. This in turn makes the Rupununi home to a wide variety of aquatic species which have crossed over from the Amazon, including Arapaima, Arawana, Black Caiman, Victoria Amazonica Lilies, and Giant River Turtles.
Why come fishing with us?
A big attraction for sports fishers is the vast array and variety of fish species that can be caught, such as Peacock bass, Arawana, Leopard Catfish, Striped Tiger Catfish, Tropical Pike, Large Payara, Pacu, and Wolffish to name a few. Giant catfish, such as Lau Lau, Red-Tailed Catfish and Jau can also be found in the deep pools. We have over 20 years of experience running fishing trips into very wild locations. Our local guides are all expert fisherman, always friendly and helpful, with a keen desire to assist you in catching “the big one.” Our adventure fishing expeditions are not based at lodges, but instead in wild and remote settings. This allows you to experience not just larger and more fish but also to submerse yourself in nature and the wild.
If you’ve ever dreamt of fishing in unspoilt and remote tropical rivers running through the rain forest, then contact us for more details on how to custom build your trip. We offer a number of custom-built fishing expeditions into remote locations. Our main fishing adventures are The Corona Falls, Rewa, and The Essequibo.
