Golden Dorado Fishing in Argentina
Golden dorado year-round
The Paraná holds fish twelve months a year. August through February is the window to plan around.
Fish and shoot from the same lodge
Dorado on the river, ducks, doves and perdiz in the field. Build the week however fits you.
One hour from Buenos Aires
Short domestic flight to Santa Fe or Paraná, then a two-hour transfer the lodge handles for you.
The River
The Paraná is the second-longest river in South America, and Rio Bravo sits directly on it. This is a working dorado fishery, not a lodge that happens to be near water. Golden dorado hold here year-round, which means the guides fish the same stretches season after season and know exactly where fish stage as conditions change. You'll fish from boats with guides who read the river for a living. Fly or conventional tackle are both options with available loner gear at the lodge. Pacú and other river species round out the days when you want a break from chasing dorado.
The Combination
Very few lodges do fishing and wingshooting equally well, and most that claim to are really doing one and tolerating the other. Rio Bravo is genuinely built for both. The same region that produces the dorado fishery produces enormous numbers of ducks, doves and perdiz, and the lodge runs full programs for each. That means you can build a week that's all river, all field, or split down the middle, and it also means a group that can't agree on what kind of trip they want doesn't have to agree. One person fishes, another shoots, everybody's back at the same table for dinner.
Accommodation & lodge life
Eight rooms, full amenities
Private baths, pool, jacuzzi, wine cellar, massage room and a fishing dock on the property.
The Lodge
Eight double bedrooms, all with private baths, and enough common space that a full lodge never feels crowded. There's a mezzanine over the river with a card room and reading area, a wine cellar, a fire pit, a jacuzzi and pool, and a massage room for after a long day on the water. The fishing dock is on property. Meals are gourmet, the bar is open, and Argentine wines are included throughout. Wi-Fi runs through the whole building if you need to stay reachable. Rio Bravo gives a partner or friend who isn't fishing plenty of reason to come along.
Rio Bravo's Cast & blast program
The Cast & Blast program splits four full days between the river and the dove fields, two of each, though the schedule flexes if you'd rather weight it one direction. Dorado are the draw on the water: heavy, fast, and airborne the moment they eat. The dove shooting is high volume, with bird boys working alongside you the entire time. Everything runs from the same lodge. No repacking, no second transfer, no compromise between the angler in your group and the shooter. You'll come off the water, clean up, and be back out with a shotgun before the light goes. Season runs August through April. Four full days, five nights, with guides, meals, beverages and transfers included.

Awesome Experience at Rio Bravo Lodge
Group of 6 family and friends stayed here for doves and fishing. We have all travelled extensively for trips like this but Rio Bravo lodge with Sierra Brava completely blew us away. They exceeded our already high expectations by a long shot. The lodge itself is just plain beautiful and comfortable. The pictures don't do it justice. When you add in the top notch service we received, it became an unforgetable experience. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The food was amazing. My 18 year old son is a super picky eater but on this trip he cleaned his plate every day. 4 course meals of delicious food every time we sat down. The staff was so attentive and accommodating, from top to bottom. The river we fished on was beautiful and is walking distance from the lodge. Dorado, catfish and piranha were all caught. The dove experience was amazing and so much fun! I simply can't say enough good about this place and I can easily recommend it to anyone interested. I will be back for sure.
