The most interesting thing about dorado fishing here is that fishing is done by wading crystal clear waters, almost impossible in other destinations. Moreover, the Dorados are hardfighting, wild jumping and brilliantly colored. The average of the dorados is around 5 pounds.
 Within a three-hour drive from the airport Rio Seco Lodge is located close to the village of Las Lajitas, in the Province of Salta. The lodge serves over 20km of the Dorado River, which flows through the yungas (warm rainforest's), forming big pools and riffles where the fighting Dorado, the tiger of the rivers, is found.
