We were delighted to have CEO of Untamed Angling Brazil and master fly fisherman, Rodrigo Salles, join us on the podcast. If you don’t know, Rodrigo runs one of the premier fishing lodge operations on the planet. The Untamed Angling group operates 9 locations throughout Brazil and Bolivia. This includes the famed Rio Marie lodge which credits over 15 world record fish to its name. Its also home to the renowned 5-Star “floating lodge” that takes you to different destinations along the river throughout your stay and has every amenity you could imagine.


I was captivated to hear about Rodrigo growing up in a place that we in the States consider so out of reach and exotic. Over time, he and his partners have grown this platform into one of the most special and unique fishing destinations in the world. It’s unheard of really, how they’ve pioneered this business to break new ground.


If you listen to or watch the podcast, you’ll hear amazing stories about how they worked with native tribes and both the Brazilian and Bolivian governments to secure the rights to fish and charter these extraordinary waters. You’ll find out how they defied odds and quite frankly were laughed at when suggesting catching new species like the Arapaima on fly. They worked in harmony with the tribes so their camps and lodges could provide for these native communities in ways never before seen.


It doesn’t stop with Arapaima though. These destinations have been well known for catching the world’s largest species of Peacock Bass, Golden Dorado and have revolutionized catching Payara on fly among many others. If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure and trying to widen your portfolio and species caught, then look no further than Untamed Angling. You won’t find an operation that does it better.


It’s incredible to think about all the widespread types of fishing there are in the world, and yet we can still be such a tight knit community. That’s the power of being Connected By Water. Rodrigo is such an amazing person - Kind, genuine, intelligent and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to world-class angling. I think you’ll really love this episode.
