At Rio Chico, Anglers will be at Tacarigua Lagoon National Park staying in Tortuga Lodge. The Lodge was recently bought back b Bernd Kroeningy who was a partner and original owner. Bernd has invested a large sum to bring Tortuga back to being a lodge of known for its exceptional service. This along with its very desirable location on the Tacaringua Lagoon make it a great angling destination. .
Los Roques archipellago are easily fished by wading miles of pristine banks and shallows as numerous schools of bonefish pout from eel grass, creating numerous stalk and cast scenarios, each with its own story. Anglers will have no trouble hooking good numbers of sizzling bonefish that run 4 to 8 pounds. Double digit bonefish are common place on these flats. Occasionally a tarpon or monster barracuda prowls the lagoon. African pompano, mackerel and several varieties of snapper are found near the points and drop offs. Having been designated a National Park, no new buildings can be constructed on the islands. Long-line fishermen are forbidden and other kinds of fishing have been closely regulated. As a result, the numbers of Bone-fish there have increased steadily, while other types of game fish have migrated to these protected waters – you may find tarpon up to 100 pounds. Rio Chicos’ Tortuga Lodge’s good news is its ideal location in the Tacarigua Lagoon (Rio Chico) no more than 5 to 10 minutes by boat to find GREAT FISHING!!! It is a shallow estuary famous for non-stop tarpon action. With the best guides in the Tacaringua National Park, you can expect a catch of 40 -60 fish per day. While Rio Chico is home to schools of 5-10 pound Tarpon and Snook, occasionally a trophy over 50 pounds may be landed. You will cruise the shoreline through Mangrove lagoons casting streamers or Poppers into prime habitat. You will also enjoy seeing the many species of birds along the Lagoon.
