About Reservatório

Reservatório sits in São Paulo, Brazil and offers the kind of structure-driven reservoir fishing that suits both bank anglers and those working from a small boat or float tube. Fish on a stillwater like this don't move much during the heat of the day — finding shade, cooler thermoclines, or current from inflowing streams is the local trick. Most successful trips to Reservatório come down to reading the water before tying on a lure.

Fishing Techniques

• For Atlantic croaker

  Fish near the bottom with a Carolina rig or a simple bottom rig, croaker feed primarily on or near the seabed. Use small hooks and light tackle to detect their subtle bites.

• For Small-scaled pacu

  Present your bait or lure near submerged vegetation or fallen trees, as pacu often seek shelter and food in these areas. Use a strong line and hook due to their powerful jaws.

• For Trahira

  Target structure like weed beds and submerged logs, as traíra are ambush predators. Use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs.
