Chase Jungle Gold in Bolivia

Fly fishing in Bolivia unfolds deep within the Isiboro Secure National Park, where the Pluma and Itirizama rivers spill out of the Andes foothills as clear freestone water winding through untouched jungle. Our partner, Pluma Lodge, offers a rare chance to sight-cast to powerful golden dorado that ambush flies in plain view, along with hard-fighting pacu, the so-called freshwater permit, and quick, aggressive yatorana. Fishing is done almost entirely on foot, wading riffles, pools, and canyon runs with a team of professional international and Indigenous guides. Reaching the lodge is an adventure in itself, by charter flight and upriver canoe, and the reward is a genuine jungle expedition balanced by fine cuisine, comfortable riverside cabins, and the camaraderie of a small, close-knit lodge in one of South America's most pristine wilderness areas.
