MID-WEEK FISHING REPORT: DEC. 30 – JAN 06, 2018 (2 ½ DAYS)

CELEBRATING THE NEW YEAR IN THE JUNGLE

Last Saturday 30th, we received in two Fly-in Floating Suites two groups totaling 14 anglers who decided to start 2018 in the quiet of the jungle, just fishing. They headed to the headwaters of the Jufaris and Xeruini rivers. They obtained good yields of up to more than 100 landed peacock bass per boat per day (see table above) but perhaps due to some heavy rain episodes only very few trophies. Rain is expected to stop today and the forecast for the rest of the week is excellent. Water levels are about 2ft below jungle level and are slowly starting to rise.

The Indirei group arriving today for a short week will enjoy perfect fishing conditions.

Dry-Zone S.East

Water levels are high, closed for the season, which is normal for this time of the year.

Dry-Zone S.West

Water levels are high, closed for the season, which is normal for this time of the year.

Dry-Zone N.West

Water levels are about 1.5ft. below jungle level and have started slowly to rise. Jufaris and Xeruini private fisheries are presenting excellent fishing conditions for the rest of the week. No significant rain episodes are expected in the coming days.

Dry-Zone N.East

Water levels are about 2ft. below jungle level and rising. Fishing conditions are excellent. Heavy rain episodes are expected to stop today and no significant rain is expected for the rest of the week.

NOTE that the green area at the North affecting the Amazon basin and our fisheries is now darker, this makes us believe that it might have a positive influence (65%) in our fisheries, averting extreme low water levels as we had last season.
