La Zona/ Giant Golden Dorado

As I have written numerous times, the golden dorado is the strongest freshwater species I have encountered along with the Papua New Guinea Bass.  Golden dorado in my opinion do not exhibit the strong first run of a PNG bass. 
However if you can withstand the bass initial run and keep it from running into snags odds are in your favor.  Golden dorado on the other hand have numerous drag burning runs and often leap numerous times to get free and put the strong currents to their advantage.  There are numerous places in Argentina to fish for the golden, however, if you are seeking a dorado over 50 pounds La Zona on the Uruguay River in the town of Concordia is the place to go.  Currently there is 1 operator who holds the 2 permits which allow you to fish in the La Zona area.  Bookings are already filling for the 2019.  If this fishery has been on your wish list, act now before the season is booked full.  You can contact me for help making a reservation or if you have any questions on this outstanding fishery.
