Manaus is the Capital of the Amazonas on the banks of the RIO Negro where you can take a boat tour to a nearby Arapaima fish farm. There are several pens with different-sized Arapaima that you can feed with a “fish on a stick”, which gives you a real insight into how they feed and how powerful these beautiful fish are!

There are very few places in the world where you can fish for truly wild Arapaima over 200 pounds in their native environment, and that will only continue if they are protected. Check our video on the fantastic Arapaima fishing we experienced at Pirarucu with Untamed Angling :-
