The trip began in Buenos Aires where we got to talk and know each other. Th bus up to Esquina arrived early so we had a short nap before going out fishing. By half past seven we had some breakfast and we left to meet with our guide. He took us south where we could find good clear water spots, due to the amount of water the parana was dropping into the other channels. The parana feeds allot of these smaller rivers, and this time it was very high, so we where fishing inside the islands where most of the activity was. To make a long story short, in the first day Charlie hooked a Dorado on every spot the guide took us, landing 4 of them.
He was amazed by the size of these fish and also about the fight these fish put when they hit your fly!! I have to say that in the first day we where blessed with the weather, we had a very nice sunny day, making the scenery more attractive, and I think that was what amazed Charlie the most!!
The second day started with heavy rain, so we decided to take it easy and wait a bit for the weather to get better.... Before mid day we where back in the boat, with some waterproof jackets and pants, which the guide provided us. Weather was cold so we had to fish deeper. This time we drifted through some canals, having some stikes. We arrived to a spot with some clear water where I caught a 13 pound Dorado. When we got back to the hosteria we where staying at, we found that they where making a big Asado for some guys from Uruguay, and we where invited so we gladly joined them, finishing the trip with some good wine and a superb asado.
Cheers
