Lindo Dorado

Our friend & excellent guide, Peto, recently netted this incredible dorado from the Yahape region in northern Argentina. For more information, see: Yahape. Those in the know agree that it’s the best dorado location in Argentina for the serious angler.

Yahape is hands down my favorite Dorado destination in Argentina. I don’t know how he does it, but Pinti always manages to find big fish. There are still some availability for 2011, so drop us a line if interested :)

The upper Parana in northern Argentina along the Paraguayan border is hands down my favorite place to fish for Dorado, and it’s easy to see why:

After talking w/ the locals and various stake holders in the area, we discovered that fisheries “management” or “conservation” or whatever you want to call it, is actually rather progressive in this part of Argentina. Despite the utter lack of scientific knowledge on dorado populations, officials largely realize the economic value dorado provide in the form of sport fishing and tourism, and want to preserve the resource. In fact, killing a dorado is now illegal in both the Corrientes province of Argentina and across the river in Paraguay. Nonetheless, the region is acutely impoverished and many locals break the rules and poach fish just to make ends meat. But at least the attitudes of the decision makers at the top of the pyramid seem to be oriented in the right direction. Perhaps our fisheries stakeholders could learn a thing or to from them.. But enough of fishing politics. We did manage to fit some actual fishing too!
