Golden Dorado, 90 Minutes From Buenos Aires

A full day on the water, chasing golden dorado on the lower Paraná, a short drive from the city.

Cross Dorado Off the List

Golden dorado has been on your list for years, and you’re already in Buenos Aires. Professional guides, the same standard of service as our lodges, and one of the hardest-fighting fish in fresh water, all ninety minutes away. You know that voice in your head saying “why not”? Let’s make it happen.

Big Water, Close to Home

The lower Paraná here is wide and slow-moving, full of structure: sunken timber, current seams, baitfish balls that dorado push to the surface. We fish it with fly and spinning gear both. The water calls for reading current more than casting distance, so it suits anglers who like figuring out where the fish actually are. Tararira, chafalote, palometa, and surubí show up too, so the net rarely stays dry for long.

One Day, Start to Finish

Meet your guide in Baradero, about 90 minutes from Buenos Aires. From there, a full day on the boat with one guide and up to two anglers, lunch and soft drinks included. Back on shore by late afternoon.
INCLUDES: Guide and boat (up to 2 anglers) · Gear, if you need it · Lunch and soft drinks
NOT INCLUDED: Transfers to/from Buenos Aires · Lodging before or after · Gratuities

Available Year-Round

$800 per boat, up to two anglers.

We can also arrange transfers from Buenos Aires, or help you build a longer program around this day.
