Posted: December 7, 2011 | Fishing Reports | By: HOA

 
Good news from the Amazon yet again!  Water levels are shaping up very nicely and inching their way down daily on the upper Rio Negro.  Sand flats are visible.   We had to navigate into shallow waters to get into some good fishing areas, and again, sand bars are everywhere.  We certainly had a great group of guys with us this week!
