About Rio Cachoeira

Rio Cachoeira, in Santa Catarina, Brazil, is a river where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Rio Cachoeira is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques

• For Common snook

  When fishing around docks, skip your lure as far under as possible to reach snook hiding in the shade, as they are ambush predators.

• For Fat snook

  Fish near structure like docks, mangroves, and bridges, as fat snook are ambush predators that like to hide and dart out for prey.

• For Trahira

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