The Secure River
The Sécure River is born at the confluence of the Nutusama and Cascarillas streams. Along its first sections, the river flows from north to south between the Mosetenes and the Eva Eva Mountains. It’s one of the tributaries of the Mamoré River, which runs to the Madeira River, one of the main tributaries of the Amazon itself.Here the Sécure is extremely beautiful with crystal clear waters, wedged between mountains and pristine jungle. This fishery provides anglers an extremely close and unique contact with the jungle. Our transportation is via handmade Chiman wood dugout canoes (cuambas), powered by push poles or engines, but the fishing is 100% wet wading, with many chances for sight casting.
On the higher Sécure section there are dorado topping 30 pounds, many of them residents. There are also many pacú, moturo, surubi, and yatorana, all of which are excellent species for practicing different fishing techniques. Upstream from the lodge, there are two small tributaries (the Ashahana and the Maniquicito creeks) which are home to truly large big dorado in tiny, crystal clear waters.
