This is the land of the peacock bass: an incredibly strong, acrobatic and aggressive gamefish that has captured the imagination of fly anglers for decades. It is a lush, jungle landscape of endless angling possibilities and an experience not to be missed. Home to large peacock bass and arapaima, this is a unique part of the world.
Home to an incredible number of different plants, animals, birds and more than 3,000 different species of fish, it is one of the most bio-diverse places on the planet. The Amazon River starts high in the Peruvian Andes and flows more than 3,000 miles to join the Rio Negro near Manaus. There, these two great systems combine to become the Lower Amazon, running all the way to the Atlantic Ocean and the city of Belem.
