About Rio Paraibuna
Rio Paraibuna cuts through Minas Gerais, Brazil and offers classic canal 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 Paraibuna — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques
- For Golden dorado
Target areas with fast-moving water near submerged logs or rocky outcroppings, as golden dorado often ambush prey from these locations.
- For Common carp
Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
- For Twospot astyanax
Use light tackle and small hooks to avoid spooking these small, wary fish. Target areas with cover, such as submerged vegetation or fallen trees.
