Mid-Week Fishing Report: June 23 – 25 , 2018 (2 ½ days)

120 lbs Monster Pirarara landed at the Upper Marmelos private fishery

1.475 landed peacock bass was the final count for the Alexandre group last week, largest of which weighed 17lbs, also in the catch 9 beautiful pirararas including an outstanding trophy weighing 120lbs and measuring 4.3ft in length. Last Saturday we received the Moreira group`s 7 anglers, and they started their week landing 543 peacock bass with 23 passing the 10lbs. mark and the largest the 16lbs. mark. Weather conditions at our Marmelos private fishery are excellent. Water levels are a bit to high  which is normal for this time of the year but fishing is still the best available in the Amazon. Trophy fish have not  been larger than 17 lbs but fishing should improve.

Dry-Zone S.East 
Water levels are 2.0 ft. above optimal level and dropping (see graph below - Humaita). Weather forecast confirms tendency showing no significant rain episodes (see report below - Manicore - Alegrete station).
 Dry-Zone S.West 
Water levels are high,  closed for the season, which is normal for this time of the year. (beige in map above) Dry-Zone N.West
Water levels are high,  closed for the season, which is normal for this time of the year.

Water levels for the Madeira basin measured at Humaita depicts the normal dropping tendency that directly affects our Marmelos river private fishery (see red arrow above and diagram below)

  NOTE that the yellow area at the North affecting the Amazon basin and our fisheries makes us believe that it might have a positive influence (70%) in our fisheries, averting extreme water levels for the rest of the season.

PEACOCK BASS SEASON IS NOW OFFICIALLY OPEN

We have started operating in Dry-Zone S.E. last week at our exclusive Marmelos river private fishery. The Brito group integrated by 8 anglers broke waters this 2018-19 season, landing 969 peacock bass the largest of which weighed 17lbs.. The catch also included several notable specimens of pirara, pirapitinga, matrinxã, bicuda, apapá and piranhas. Last weekend we received the Ferracioli group, also of 8 anglers which in 2 1/2 days had a promising start landing 176 peacock bass the largest of which weighed 16 pounds. Floating-Suites are stationed way up in the river, water levels are reported to be just 1.5 ft. above the ideal level. Weather forecast for the rest of the week shows no significant rain episodes in the area, making us think that the dropping water level tendency will continue.
