Freshwater Fishing - Lowland RiversPacific LowlandsOnce the rivers reach the lowlands they are
bigger, wider and calmer and are home to an interesting mix of
species. It is in these waters that Snook usually reach their limits
of inland migration and where Machaca and Roncador also reach their
limits of seaward travel. Some of the bigger specimens of each
species can be encountered so this is typically bigger rod and heavy
shock/bite tippet territory. These fisheries are usually worked from
driftboats and on foot due to the quiet, serene nature of the
environment and the wary, spooky traits of the larger fish that
inhabit the area. Jonboats with 4 stroke outboards are used only
seasonally when longer distances have to be traveled. Lowland trips
are done on the Rio Savegre, Naranjo, Parrita, Paquita, Guavo, Baru,
and many other smaller creeks and canals. Lowland guided river trip prices are $375 per day
for 1 or 2 persons.
