MONTANA #8

FLY FISHING THE WORLD FAMOUS MISSOURI RIVER

Come to Montana and experience this impressive 8,000 square-foot historic inn that combines a magnificent setting of rustic elegance and modern amenities. Nestled on the banks of the world famous Missouri River, one of our nation’s finest blue-ribbon trout streams, and beneath majestic rocky cliffs, you will enjoy luxurious accommodations, and superior service. “I have been to several exclusive fly fishing lodges over the years and I can say that my experience at this lodge has been the best. Everyone in our group of 15 caught and released 15 – 20 fish each day. The Lodge on the river is superb with all ensuite marble bathrooms and a stunning great room. The guides and boats are the best. Food was 5 star. I highly recommend this lodge.”- John. S The Missouri River is a classic western tailwater that begins at Three Forks outside of Bozeman and wanders for miles. The Missouri is known for large populations of trout that have an average size that rivals any river in the world. This is due to good management, quality insect hatches and consistently cold, clean water.

BRAZIL #7

HOSTED FLY-IN FLOATING LODGE FOR AMAZON PEACOCK BASS

Join Fish Nation on a premium hosted fly-in peacock bass experience with one of Brazil's most reputable outfitters in the Amazon basin. With nine (9) exclusive rivers, anglers will enjoy unspoiled waters with zero outside fishing pressure. We will be hosting one of three available weeks on the Uneiuixi River, one of the best and more remote areas for giant peacock bass over 80cm. Additionally, we have two open weeks on the Lower Itapara River, great for those seeking high daily catch rates at a very attractive price.

This outfitter's shallow-draft floating train lodge allows the unique ability to stay mobile, moving each weekly group to new unfished areas with ideal water conditions. And because their operation is mobile, anglers can expect short daily commutes by boat to prime areas, as little as 5 - 20 minutes, and rarely exceeding 30-45 minutes, maximizing the amount of fishing time.

Enjoy a small camp atmosphere with only eight anglers per week. Double-occupancy floating cabins each have electricity, private bathrooms, air conditioning and fantastic food. Fish Nation's Derek Amadio and Diego Andrade fished with this outfitter in November of 2024 and had an incredible experience. Package price includes the first night at a hotel in Manaus, fishing license, all meals and accommodations during the trip plus wine, beer and hard liquor, as well as the round-trip charter flight from Manaus direct to the floating lodge. Additionally, this area is virtually absent of any biting insects or mosquitos thanks to the high tannin levels of these rivers.
