Water levels are slowly dropping in our fisheries in the Dry-Zone N.East. The Kabori and Upper Jufaris are a bit low but very fishable and the Itapará is dropping a bit from its ideal point. Practically nil rainfall forecast for Rorainopolis in the area of influence of the Itapara confirms this tendency. All fisheries are expected to maintain good fishing conditions in the coming week.
