It is hard to imagine a vacation where, on the same trip you can experience two of the most fabulous hunting and Fishing experiences found anywhere in the world. Our "Cast and Blast" connects you with the Freshwater Dorado and White Eared Dove of Argentina. This experience promises to produce as much excitement as you can stand.


The fresh water Dorado (Salminus Maxillosus) is native to the immense marshlands of Northern Argentina in the province of Corrientes. This is an area visually similar to the Everglades of Florida. Here the Dorado is at the top of the food chain and is known as "the tiger of the river". It is considered to be the single most challenging native fresh water game fish of South America. It is a brilliant, yellow-colored fish with a strong jaw and sharp teeth. This is a fish that does not die after spawning and never swims in the ocean. It grows to enormous sizes. Although the world record is 70 lb., the Dorado normally ranges in size from 5 to 45 pounds. It is an exceptionally strong swimmer and this voracious fish could accurately be described as a cross between a bull terrier and a Tarpon. It hammers top water flies with reckless abandon and immediately explodes out of the water in a series of outrageous jumps and relentless line stripping runs.

After fishing for 4 days there is no time to relax as you experience 2 halves and 1 full day of extreme Dove shooting in Chaco, Argentina. We're not kidding when we say you could easily see millions of dove per day. Don't be surprised when you start requesting more shells by the case!
