The Marmelos on a fly!
1,298 Peacocks by 7 anglers
Steve Lesikar and the rest of the group managed to boat 1298 Peacocks in our 3rd week of the season. Having fished nearly all our 12 rivers, they’ve come back again to the Marmelos to experience its beauty and fishing quality. Some of the guys called it a day before time after landing a 16 pounder and nearly 130 fish in just a few hours. We kept navigating our River Train downstream in search of more productive waters. Flyfishing in the Marmelos is a dream come true!
Weather: No rainstorms were experienced during the week. Waters have come down 12 inches approximately and we are moving downstream. Our South East Zone forecasts show no rains, sunny skies and high temperatures. We predict water levels will keep decreasing

THE SUN SHINES BRIGHT OVER THE MARMELOS
1,594 Peacocks by 8 anglers
The Reimer group of 8 anglers landed 1594 Peacocks. Our old friend-of-the-house Curt Reimer and his son came back again for more action. We are more than happy to support some family bonding on the water. The double caught is sure to be a great addition to the family album. Other less aggressive tropical species were left out of the fishing tally.
Weather: As predicted last week, waters keep receding, thus concentrating Peacocks in a smaller area. Cherry picking the best waters is crucial and we are deciding to stay for a while at the Marmelos. Our South East Zone forecasts show clear skies and no rain in sight. See below the 3-month Rain Anomaly Forecast.

Breaking waters
We kicked off our fishing season in the Marmelos with the Coats party from the US, who managed to boat 1,360 Peacocks in their short week trip (4 ½) days. Other exotic species were left out of the fishing tally.
Weather: The region is experiencing less rainfall than the historical average, meaning that the water levels are in optimum condition. La Nina is finally receding, and the Amazon basin is steadily coming back to normal. All water systems in our South East Zone are forecasted to have little to no rain for the next 2 weeks. See below the 3-month Rain Anomaly Forecast.
