Suindá Lodge
On the Upper Paraná River in Corrientes, Suindá Lodge is on one the most productive sections of the river. It is a clear water fishery that consistently produces good numbers of large golden dorado.
With fast flowing runs over rocky sections, it is the structure of this section of water that is key to its success. When conditions are right, and the Sabalo baitfish are congregating, the sandbank zones can be sight fished.
Spring (late September to October) on the Upper Paraná sees the river marked by higher flows and clearer water. Dorado feed hard to pack on weight before spawning at the end of the year. As the water temperature rises after spring, the dorado become more active as do pirá pitá and pacú. Post spawning through January—April the dorado hunt around structure and as summer progresses, the fishing focus moves on to pirá pitá and pacú. Regardless of season, the upper Paraná is a fishing and naturalist’s paradise.
The central lodge emulates traditional local buildings with its hardwood design and high ceilings. There is a fully stocked bar, dining area, fly tying spot and a shop. The lodge is also able to provide loaned equipment if needed.
The lodge itself accommodations ten guests at a time in stilted living quarters that have been built nine feet above the jungle floor. All have views of the river, two double beds, en-suite facilities and wi-fi.
