San Fernando Fishing Lodge is strategically located in the most private section of the jungle, known as “the Yungas”, a thick lush rainforest near the eastern slope of the Andean Cordillera, home to a spellbinding diversity of plants and animals including South American tapirs, ocelots, monkeys, white-lipped peccarys, with toucans and lots of other wild birds..
The technique needed here is the surprise cast (techniques familiar to anglers on fisheries like the Parana River and the Ibera Marshlands are less effective on the Dorado River). The surprise cast demands that anglers are both accurate and delicate in their presentation. The recommended gear for the Dorado River is dry flies with a 9-foot, 7-weight rod with a 7-weight saltwater line. But don’t worry, our 3 guides (Agustin, Oscar and Fernando) know this river blindfolded, and they will share every tip to help you cast effectively and land one or more dorados at San Fernando, in what surely will be an experience of a lifetime in your fly fishing dreams.
