Agua Boa Lodge with Landon Mace

Located in northern Brazil, the Agua Boa River is remarkably clear, with white sand beaches more reminiscent of the Florida Keys than what most expect of the Amazon jungle. Overlooking the river is the Agua Boa Amazon Lodge, the world’s first operation dedicated exclusively to pursuing peacock bass and other jungle species on the fly. Brazilian guides take anglers up and down the 77 miles of river in 18-foot Jon boats. The water is clear and, in many cases, allows anglers to sight fish for peacock bass, arowana, pacu, and a host of other jungle species.
