Mid-Week Fishing Report: Dec. 07 – 09, 2019 (2 ½ days)

ANGLERS EXPLORING THE UPPER JUFARIS

Week end´s tally (2 ½ days):

Note: this 2 1/2 days report is to rush last weekend’s conditions to our incoming anglers.

Itapará in Dry-Zone N. East -: Last Saturday we received the Kojetin group of 7 anglers that included Mario and Paulo Martins visiting us one more time. They had a slow start having to endure some heavy rain episodes that affected their yields. Water levels are a bit high, and dropping tendency is expected to resume once the rain passes in the next days. Please see forecast below.

Upper Jufaris fishery in Dry-Zone N. West -: Last Sunday we received the Carringer group of 6 anglers, with Richard Carringer and Richard Schumacher repeating once again. They have a special schedule for a shorter week. Group has been exploring the Upper Jufaris area with excellent results; enduring some heavy rain episodes which presented no obstacle to obtaining several trophies, largest of which exceded the 20lbs. mark. Joao pepino and jigs are the best working lures.

Today´s Average Water Levels:
