Río Jubones

Flowing through El Oro, Ecuador, Río Jubones is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Río Jubones hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Río Jubones can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.
