Yahape, Corrientes State

After our visit to Itá Ibaté travel to Yahapé, there were received in the Cabañas Puerto Yahapé Paradise ", by Francisco, a great friend for years who always makes us feel at home, by dint of hard work the complex is spotless , well-cut grass, clean boat, ready to receive all the fishermen who come to make your fishing trip, as is a new I will give you several views to emerge.

We were a flock of journalists, Saccone Bruno Pescanet of two American journalists, Daniel Calabrese of the tiger of the rivers with a fishing companion, Patricia and I, and that Francis was at a loss, our biggest thanks.

We arrived on Monday evening, we settled, and we sat in front of the river quincho chatting with Francisco for several months since we saw it, a pleasure to watch the park so long to the river bottom and savoring a wiskicito, we plan enter the river to fish early bogas, and they were some-pacú, so prepare the equipment and after a good dinner we went to rest.

The day of the river or go fishing early with our guide, as we did not have weights of 70 grams. that were needed, we went to port Carau "to find some in the home of the guide, then slide down to a very strong (hence the weight of 70 grams), Patri donned a cane and I a Shimano Clarus kunnen South, both boys and multifilament rotating reels of 0.15.

Lines using pre-armed, liders 1 mt. with a short section of steel before the hook to avoid the court if a pacú of pique, put a grain of corn and fish hooks, a few minutes to guide a nail pacú and me to be your cane I fight, we decided to leave the boat anchored for the fight is more even, beautiful obstinacy, because the fish can take advantage of the current force to defend themselves, something that does not occur if the vessel released for "falling" with the fish.

Patri immediately nailed another piece, but managed to take out multi fast to contain and bring the boat turned out to be a beautiful salmon river (Pirá PITA), a few minutes another salmon, immediately to capture a militant pacú until there bogas no news in a short time is the founder and begin to chop the little bogas, one after another, sometimes all the rods with fish in a little over three hours we made a spectacular fishing, after the midday lunch back at the complex and rest a while.

For this type of fishing we drop the line next to the boat and the lift and go down until you are leaving that lead was responsible, and several times, so the line goes away and cover a wide sector of fisheries, note that in very rapid water weight of lead does not allow the use of canes too light because it could lead the fund raising.

At five in the afternoon we returned to the river, now for fishing bait, did the fall from Puerto Carau until well below the Port Yahapé is an area of deep rocks, andalusia Patricia is a long time and ruined a nice catch Golden made great leaps and cartwheels to loosen the hook, but finally we were able to lift the photos.

Falls again but nothing happened, we were accompanied by the music that came from the campsite is at the Port Yahapé as the sun decided to fall last fall, but it changed amid cumbia music by Pink Floyd, Beatles and Creedence, the river was so nice and the music that we continue to fish in a comeback 'short' ie up before Puerto Carau, Patri tranca, while I removed my nylons and I also had a trance, but andalusia pick up the boat noticed that my nylon still sticking out so the Cañazo, y. .... "Munoz said to run" to get started online thousand, Patricia destrancamos line and dropped the boat in order to fight the fish, as we saw in no time we were assured that a surubí large (a few days ago had taken one of 63 kilos which I saw in the newspaper of Corrientes).

While I struggled with the fish and the guide Patri estimated weight, 30 kilos, 35 kilos, 40 kilos, it seemed-a-shot, after "falling" a good time away and I brought him closer towards the first surface as the water was very clear I see more than one meters down and the big surprise, UN DORADO, when he saw the boat went like a rocket towards the bottom and back to start, but already had the thrill of having the line Golden biggest fish that ever came to play and nerves

If you set me short

If you are still getting a cut stone and

Maybe I will never have a fish on the rod so I can not lose

I am going to win over the bottom of the boat and cut

"I am trembling legs, the strength of gold seemed to have no limit, in a moment I thought that Calcutta had been broken, but I was turned and he got more than I would go, the guide with the engine running ran the boat when I wanted to put down, began to gather around our boats and I got more pressure, after more than half an hour I was able to remove the surface and the guide did not give time to anything, one hand on the tail, the another below the belly and GOLD UP.

I can not find the words that define my state of euphoria about the capture, did not give credit to my eyes, the head of the big fish was almost like mine (but not the "bath"), you quickly get the pictures to return as soon as possible in a few minutes and went from being a beautiful reality an eternal memory.

I forgot to mention that gold can not jump very high, since they can not lift your weight out of water, so we are immersed in trying to free themselves and therefore we think that is a surubí.

As I have said many times, the Alto Paraná can give long hours of waiting times to no reply, but it is latent largest fish catch of our lives is a matter of perseverance and good luck, and have a guide for you to know where the bait and switch as help in our struggle with the fish.

A huge thanks to our guide because he got claw until the last minute, and our love and thanks to Francis, who gives us the opportunity to do these surveys in your beautiful complex.
