Fishing in Uruguay


Dorado Fishing - Freshwater Fishing in Uruguay

 

Large Dorado - Catching them is the Reward

Dorado fishing is a fishing trip that you do not have to worry or wait to "catch" the trophy - you just have to be prepared for active catching all day. The freshwater dorado in Uruguay is a unique fish that grows up to 30 lbs and the average dorado is 8 to 18 lbs.

These fish are fighters giving them the name of "tiger fish" in South America. The ability to see the dorado go after the large colorful handmade lures and the fight and jumps of the dorado make this a sport of fishing like no other!

Los Gauchos offers dorado fishing in Salto, Uruguay. Salto is located in the northwest part of Uruguay and the guides and the land are a treat. Hot springs and a quaint town with the freshwater river that seperates Argentina from Uruguay and is full of the Golden Dorado make this fishing trip first class.

While Salto tends to attract the anglers - you can easily combine some Uruguay hunting with this Uruguay fishing trip.


The season is open year round for fishing in Uruguay. For those wanting to add Perdiz hunting to their dorado fishing trip, you can during the Uruguay Perdiz hunting season which is May to the end of July.
