About Rio Jacaré
Rio Jacaré, in Minas Gerais, 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 Jacaré 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 Trahira
Target structure like weed beds and submerged logs, as traíra are ambush predators. Use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs.
- For Black pacu
Black pacu are primarily herbivorous, so focus on presenting baits and lures that resemble fruits, seeds, or vegetation near structure or in areas with abundant plant life.
- For Spotted pimelodus
Fish near structures such as submerged logs or rocky areas, as Spotted Pimelodus often seek shelter and ambush prey there; use a slow retrieve to keep the bait in the strike zone.
