Fy fishing Golden Dorado in Argentina’s Iberá Wetlands. Pirá Lodge
[ Ссылка ]
Located in the heart of a nature preserve twice the size of the Florida Everglades, Pirá Lodge is a fly fisherman’s paradise. Adventure-driven anglers will find front-door access to a vibrant ecosystem featuring crystal clear creeks, flowing rivers, flats-type habitats, and lakes. Welcome to the kingdom of the hard-charging, high-jumping freshwater dorado!

In 1999 Nervous Waters built the first fly-fishing lodge specifically dedicated to dorado. Strategically located in the Ibera Wetlands, near the headwaters of the Corriente River, Pira raises the bar when it comes to high-end accommodations, experienced guides and staff, phenomenal food, and quality equipment.

The fishing is done both in small to medium size river channels either in the marsh or on the upper section of the Corriente River. Water flows crystal clear in this natural reservoir, offering sight-fishing opportunities and chances to fish both floating and sinking lines. Depending on conditions, floating patterns like mice and frog imitations can be used to tempt unpressured dorado. Fishing is done from immaculately maintained Hell’s Bay flats skiffs. Some areas can also be wade-fished. In addition, for those who appreciate a subtle approach to intimate waters, the area is an ultra-light fishing paradise. From the lodge dock, for instance, avid anglers can catch a range of exotic species, such as dientudo, tararira, piraña, cabeza amarga and more, using micro poppers, dry flies, nymphs and small streamers.
