Randy VanDam and GreatLakesBass.com are heading to the mighty Rio Negro with two groups in January 2012. Already one member of GreatLakesBass.com is confirmed going which is nice because I like to fish with my friends! The first week's group, approximately January 7 - 14, 2012, is full. We have a few spots left with the second group yet, but time is running out! We have to close it off and turn it in to the outfitter soon so he has time to fill the remaining spots.

While fishing the Rio Negro deep in the NW part of the Amazon in Brazil, Jim Taylor decided he'd like a picture of a small caiman like Randy VanDam did the day before. After spotting a possible subject floating in a backwater, Jim hooks into a beast that turns out to be a big full grown 8 foot spectacled caiman. And he's an angry caiman!! Here's an intro video for the full video. Check it out and watch the full battle (edited down to the best 10 minutes) on the forum at http://www.greatlakesbass.com/forum/index.php?topic=8910.0

Steve's Apocalypse on the Rio Negro
By editor on Feb 21, 2010 | In Peacock Bass Fishing, Brazil, Amazon, Rio Negro | Send feedback »
Peacock bass fishing along the Rio Negro is a total adventure. The trip was made up of some expected and even hoped for happenings, pretty much all of it a first for me. Some parts of the first time adventure were completely unexpected. Steve's apocalypse definitely falls into the latter category since we were unprepared and not expecting this at all!
Everything that happened made this a trip I'll never forget. Particularly the invasion of our boat the second night in the Amazon jungle.

This is a pretty cool feature I can point you to thanks to a fellow trip mate Dave Gizzi. Dave wore a satellite GPS device during the day that recorded his travels throughout our 2010 Exotic Outdoor Adventures Rio Negro River peacock bass fishing trip using Google mapping! Very cool!!
