Rio Negro
Mothership Experience
January, and February

The classic jungle fishing experience! There's a reason why the mighty Rio Negro is the Amazon's #1 destination for big peacock bass.  

Exceptional fishing, luxury single occupancy accommodations, US-made BassTrackers, and incredible wildlife all make for an extraordinary jungle experience.

Group Size: 10 - 12 Guests. 8 single-occupancy and 2 double-occupancy cabins. 

Accommodations: The stunning Umuarama yacht is 130 feet long and was built with classic Brazilian luxury in mind. With beautiful Brazilian hardwood inlays throughout the ship, this 3 level yacht offers extreme comfort and class with plenty of room to roam.

What makes this location special?

The largest black water river in the world, and the fifth-largest river by volume in the world, the Rio Negro is bigger than our minds can even comprehend.  Imagine countless braids, rivers, streams, lagoons, and lakes all connected side by side.  Now imagine that area being 13 miles WIDE!  That's the Rio Negro.  With plenty of room to explore, this watershed holds many secrets, including the coveted giant Timensis peacock bass.

Rio da Lua
Floating Cabin Experience
S
eptember, October, November

This remarkable private fishery is exclusive to Nomadic Waters.  If you are looking for consistent shots at huge Timensis peacock bass, this is the location for you. Our guests lose count of how many peacock bass they land between 65 cm and 75 cm each trip.

 

Characterized by small water, this river connects to countless lakes and lagoons that all hold large paca, three bar acu, butterfly, and popoca peacock bass.  Guests hook into 20-pound acu almost every week, and these are the largest butterfly peacock bass we have ever seen.

 

If you are an explorer at heart, you will be blown away by this experience as we cut our way into new lagoons every week.

 

Group Size: 8 Guests, double occupancy.

Accommodations: Deluxe floating cabins with A/C, private bath and shower. Exceptional cuisine and cocktails, and an incredible staff make this an extraordinary experience. 

What makes this location special?

Three words: Consistent, clear water.  The Rio da Lua has extremely consistent flows and runs clear.  This makes for the perfect environment for our fish to grow fat and happy, and to spawn multiple times per season guaranteeing a well-balanced population of species.

Rio Tatuagem (new!)
Floating Cabin Experience
November

Obtaining access to this private, exclusive fishery was years in the making.  Now we can proudly say that this location is available to our guests for the first time starting in November of 2024!

Clean, clear water allows the opportunity to sight fish to the extremely rare Vazzoleri (pronounced va-zo-ledee) peacock bass. Characterized by its bright yellow body, pitch-black spotted bars, and striking blue dorsal and tail fins, this species is simply stunning. 

This species of peacock bass is found in only a few watersheds in Brazil. In the Tatuagem (pronounced ta-TU-a-ge) river system, they are the predominant peacock bass species and THEY ARE BIG. These are by far the largest Vazzoleri we have ever seen.  Considering the current world record is 17 pounds, it is very possible that the next world record Vazzoleri lives here!

Group Size: 8 Guests, double occupancy.

Accommodations: Deluxe floating cabins with A/C, private bath and shower. Exceptional cuisine and cocktails, and an incredible staff make this an extraordinary experience.
