1.720 LANDED PEACOCK BASS LAST WEEK AT THE MARMELOS

Last week’s mixed group of bait-casters and fly-fishermen/women landed more than 50 peacock bass over the 10 lbs. mark, the largest of which exceeded 18lbs.. Fish-count exceeded all expectations. This week´s group have already landed more than 90 peacock bass per angler in just 2 ½ days, and keep on enjoying perfect fishing conditions (see below). Reported working lures this weekend are perverse, jumping minnow, safada and jigs. The Floating Suites are positioned in Dry-Zone S.East with almost perfect weather conditions for the rest of the week (see below forecast for Manicoré).

Dry-Zone S.East RIVERS: MARMELOS (see map at the top). Open for peacock bass fishing. Water levels are excellent (see diagrams below). Weather forecast shows minor tropical rain episode. Fishing conditions for peacock bass continue to be ideal. Marmelo´s graphic water levels are as follows:

Weather forecast for Manicoré  

CPTEC / INPE Rainfall forecast for this quarter The above diagram depicts the rainfall probability for three months. The pale orange zone in the North forecasts a probability of about 45% that the rainfall will be below the historical mean. Therefore there will be a chance, that the water cycle develops earlier in the coming months in the North of Manaus (Dry-Zones N.West and N.East).

      All other Regions( see map above) have high water levels and are not yet open for this 2017 – 2018 season. This illustrates de importance of mobility within these 4 distinct Dry Zone areas. All other Regions graphic water levels are as follows:
