Once the dry season begins and the waters start to withdraw, a lot of huge rocks emerge on the upper Orinoco, and some form natural crystal clear pools. Nothing better than those jacuzis with a cold beer at the evening after a day of fishing at 40ºC.

Huge Peacock Bass are not the most "handsome" fish, but certainly they are the champions of the river, like this twenty five pounder.

Sardinata Real (Pellona castelnaena) is the great prize when you fish in the Orinoco or the Amazon and their tributaries. Great fighters, ready for topwater flies and really beautiful shiny silohuettes. Unfortunately this one (15 lb.) couldn't survive after swallowing a Dahlberg Diver to its gills.
