Batiano River

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