If you are looking for a jungle experience that offers luxurious lodging, fast fishing action fishing, in an extraordinary private fishery, then the Rio Matupiri could be the experience for you. This is a numbers fishery. Most fish caught are in the 2-8 pound class, but there certainly are peacock bass up to 80 cm here. Each year we hook fish that we never see, as they immediately break off. Perfect for families, father-son and/or mother-daughters, corporate groups, and fishing buddies that want to catch a lot of fish together.
