About Rio Ji-Paraná

Rio Ji-Paraná cuts through Rondônia, Brazil and offers classic river fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Rio Ji-Paraná — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Black pacu

    Black pacu are primarily herbivorous, so focus on presenting baits and lures that resemble fruits, seeds, or vegetation near structure or in areas with abundant plant life.

  • For Redbreast tilapia

    Redbreast tilapia are often found near vegetation, so target those areas and use slow retrieves to entice strikes.

  • For Vampire fish

    Use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, as vampire fish have extremely sharp teeth.
