About Rio Meirim
Rio Meirim, in Alagoas, 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 Meirim 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 Ladyfish
Ladyfish are aggressive feeders, so use a fast retrieve and be prepared for hard strikes; they often jump when hooked.
- For Hound needlefish
Hound needlefish have sharp teeth, so use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs; also, use a long shank hook.
- For Southern stingray
When fishing for southern stingrays, use a circle hook to improve hookup rates and reduce injury to the fish, especially if catch and release is planned.
