点评:I found the Fish Colombia front office staff to be exceptionally good. The owner reached out to me on Instagram and arranged a meeting with his head guide ten months ahead of my trip. This gave me plenty of time to tie the right flies to tempt the trophy peacock bass we sought at Orinoco Lodge. My only request re booking is that the company find a way to accept either cUSD credit cards or checks to make international wire transfers unnecessary.
At the lodge, the head guide was professional, super nice and safety-conscious. The fishing was challenging, yet rewarding. Trophy payara (vampire fish) were landed out of the mighty Orinoco daily. The big temensis peacocks I sought proved elusive the first three days, but I landed one over 10lbs each of the last four days. Overall, 8 of the 9 fly anglers on this adventure landed at least one 10lber over the week.
The fishing is in remote areas, so be prepared for long travel over land and in the water. The scenery is spectacular and the wildlife (if you catch a glimpse) equally beautiful.
翻译:我发现 Fish Colombia 前台员工非常出色。老板在 Instagram 上联系了我,并安排我与他的首席导游会面,这比我旅行提前了 10 个月。这让我有足够的时间绑上合适的鱼饵,以诱捕我们在 Orinoco Lodge 寻找的奖杯孔雀鲈鱼。我对预订的唯一要求是,公司找到一种接受 cUSD 信用卡或支票的方式,这样就无需国际电汇了。
在旅馆,首席导游很专业,非常友善,而且很注重安全。钓鱼很有挑战性,但也很有收获。每天都有奖杯 payara(吸血鬼鱼)从浩瀚的奥里诺科河上岸。前三天我寻找的大孔雀鲈鱼很难钓到,但最后四天我每天都钓到一条超过 10 磅的鱼。总体而言,参加这次冒险的 9 名飞钓者中有 8 名在一周内钓到了至少一条 10 磅的鱼。
钓鱼地点在偏远地区,因此请做好长途陆上和水中旅行的准备。风景十分壮观,野生动物(如果你瞥见的话)也同样美丽。
