Mike Iftiger with Peacock Bass - 2023 Hosted Week


"My two hosted weeks at Agua Boa Lodge in 2023 were the best weeks for big peacock bass in my 20-plus weeks of fly-fishing there that I have seen. We had multiple days with two anglers in a boat, landing 10 or more peacocks over 10 pounds per day."

The Agua Boa River

You'll be fishing two anglers per guide and boat. Excellent guides paddle and pole the boats. Additional boats are kept on 12-plus lakes, a short hike away. Each of the boats has a GPS SPOT device in case of an emergency the guides can have contact with the Lodge.

If you desire to tie your own flies, email Guy Schoenborn to send you fly samples.

Multiple species are available at Agua Boa: payara, catfish, arowana . . . yet peacock bass are the most prized.

There are three species of peacock bass on the Agua Boa: the butterfly, spotted/temensis, and azul. Like their namesake, the spot on their tail fins resembles the eyes on a peacock's tail feathers.
