Light at the end of the tunnel

565 Peacocks boated by 4 anglers

Week 5 started with chaos and stress at the airports. Flights were grounded and our anglers struggled to get out of the US. Only 4 of the originally planned 8 anglers made it. We were delighted that our lucky 4 managed to get to Brazil (after Ubers, new flight tickets, etc.) but gutted that 4 missed their trip of a lifetime.
All in all, our anglers experienced what Peacocks are about while enjoying fine Amazonian weather.

Weather: Clear skies, hot and humid. The usual. Our South-East forecasts show no rain for the next week. Water levels are still going down at a stable rate as expected.

Groups: 1

Anglers: 4

Peacock Bass Count: 565
