From Blue Water Junkies:

Our lodge is located on the banks of the Tomo River, within a natural reserve protected for over 6 years. In this paradise, there are numerous private lagoons, the perfect habitat for peacock bass. The Tomo River is renowned as one of the best rivers in Colombia for peacock bass fishing. In Our extensive 2000-Hectare reserve, we have 12 exclusive lagoons, the perfect habitat for large peacock bass. Our camp is located on the banks of the Tomo River, where peacock bass can be found in the calmer, shallower waters.

Anglers will also have the chance to catch other species such as catfish, payara, dogfish and piranhas, adding variety excitement fishing experience in our lodge.

Our travel package ensures a worry-free experience. It includes airplane tickets from Bogota to La Primavera and back, transportation to the lodge, accommodation, six full days of fishing, hydration, meals and snacks and medical insurance. Everything an angler needs to make the most of their fishing adventure

A note from Ellis:

I was able to connect with Manuel, an angler, guide, and multilingual attorney out of Bogota, who is leaving his suit and tie behind as he pursues guiding full time, while building the business of Blue Water Junkies. The setup they have is awesome - plenty of river and boats to access it, with the added option of fishing the private lagoons located on their protected reserve. With risk mitigation and angler safety in mind, Manuel has partnerships in place to ensure medical care and air transport in the event of emergencies. There are a number of options for anglers, and for state-side guides like myself who plan to host trips, and I am very excited and proud to be able to work with Manuel and Blue Water Junkies. I look forward to speaking with anyone who is interested, and I will continue to update this page as our weeks fill up. Thanks!
