Fishing Techniques

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.

• For Piavuçu

  Fish near submerged structure like fallen trees or weed beds, as Piavuçu often ambush prey from cover. Vary your retrieve speed to find what triggers a strike.

• 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.
