Rio Camboriú

As a river in Santa Catarina, Brazil, Rio Camboriú fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Rio Camboriú pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

• For Silver scabbardfish

  When fishing deep for silver scabbardfish, use braided line with a fluorocarbon leader for sensitivity and abrasion resistance.

• For Oceanic puffer

  Oceanic puffers are often caught as bycatch, so targeting areas where they are known to congregate while fishing for other species can increase your chances of catching them. Use heavier tackle due to their powerful jaws.

• For Permit

  Approach permit quietly and cast ahead of their direction of travel; avoid sudden movements that will spook them.
