Upper San Juan River / Rio San juan "off the beaten track destination" :

From the years 1950 till 1976 San Juan River ( Rio San Juan ) was known as one of the best Tarpon fishing Destination in the World , there were three fishing camp on the River,.. many Angling Celebrities came here....then Civil war started in Nicaragua and all Sport Fishing activities stopped. Peace came back and since 17 years the area is quiet perfectly peaceful, tourism is more than Welcome ...

It is an almost virgin Destination for Sport Fishing than I offer .

Several important Specialized TV Shows and Fishing Magazine came to visit and experience our trips... Fields&Streams, SPORT FISHING MAGAZINE, La Pesca, Voyages de Peche, Fishing Ambasador, ...

San Juan River will soon be known as one ( if not the one ) best places in the world to fish all year round for Giant Tarpon..
