Discover the premier fishing lodges and expertly guided trips across Corrientes, offering authentic experiences and world-class angling on some of the most productive waters.
Corrientes is a northeast province defined by two contrasting landscapes—the expansive Iberá Wetlands and the powerful Paraná River. This mix of lowland jungle creeks, floodplains, and big-river structure makes it one of South America’s most productive warmwater fishing regions, especially for golden dorado.
Corrientes combines visual fishing with aggressive predator behavior. The Iberá channels reward sight fishing and topwater presentations in shallow water, while the Paraná offers deep runs, submerged timber, and heavy current ideal for targeting larger dorado and surubí. Few places in Argentina offer such variety of habitat—and so many ways to fish it.
Lodge infrastructure is well established, with guided multi-day floats, remote camp setups, and experienced hosts that know how to navigate water levels, seasonal flows, and prime dorado holding zones. Whether you prefer casting to cruising fish in the wetlands or targeting structure in the main river, Corrientes offers a wild, technical, and rewarding experience.
