We are delighted to share the Bolivia 2025 season fishing reports from the Tsimane Bolivian jungle lodges Sécure, Pluma (including heli-fishing) and Agua Negra. These three superb, remote lodges offer exciting fishing in the Bolivian Amazon rainforest for dorado, pacú and yatornana. Keep checking back to this page for all the latest updates from the guides on the river.
Pluma Lodge – Heli-fishing, 2025 season fishing reports, June 8-14
The heli-fishing season launched on Sunday and delivered an unforgettable seven-day jungle adventure for guests from Finland and the United States.
Venturing into the remote, crystal-clear waters of the Pluma and Itirizama Rivers, anglers encountered aggressive pacú and hard-hitting golden dorado. The rivers are in prime condition — clean, vibrant, and perfect for sight fishing and explosive strikes.
Once again, the helicopter-supported programme proved invaluable, providing exclusive access to untouched stretches of river deep within the Bolivian Amazon. Every hookup brought unforgettable moments — strong takes, aerial acrobatics, and jungle memories to last a lifetime.
A truly epic beginning to another wild season at Pluma Lodge!
Agua Negra Lodge – 2025 season fishing reports, June 7-13
The 2025 season kicked off with plenty of action, especially from small to mid-sized dorado across all our rivers. This kind of widespread activity hasn’t been seen in years — likely a result of the dry seasons we’ve experienced recently.
With rainfall returning to normal, the dorado migration seems to be back on track. Although midweek showers brought a brief drop in temperature, the rivers remained clear and fishable throughout all of our beats.
The week’s largest dorado and pacú were both landed in the Upper Agua Negra — a fantastic sign of what’s to come.
A strong and exciting start to the season!
