Fishing on the river Vichada

The River Vichada (Río Vichada) one of the major tributaries Orinoco originates from the confluence of the Planas and Tilawa (territory of Colombia, Department of Meta). Crossing half the country along the border of the largest nature reserve of Colombia, National Natural Park El Tuparro, Vichada flows into the Orinoco on the border of Colombia and Venezuela. The length of the Vichada is 580 km and the Riverbed is winding, fairly wide. A period of calm.

Due to the absence of commercial fishing in the waters of Vichada abundant population of various species of fish, rare species of crocodiles - Orinocco.

The Vichada river is one of the most desirable rivers for sport fishing enthusiasts because of the abundance and size of her booty. Here caught a peacock bass weighing up to 11 kg. the River is totally devoid of fishing pressure, because the area is owned by indigenous Indian communities and protected from the influx of tourists. Only we offer Lodge has permission to receive the number of fishermen in groups of no more than 8 people and fishing is performed in specific areas, which received a special permit.

The proposed tour is for a full 7 days of fishing, with 5 days dedicated to fishing Peacock bass on the river Vichada and two days fishing Pajari (fish-vampire) on the Orinoco river.
