The Giant Peacock Bass of the Lake

Lake Manso is now home to the largest Blue Peacock Bass in Brazil — and the Amazonian Pinimas that found the perfect habitat to thrive. These are fish of brutal strength, explosive strikes and fights that test any equipment.

It's not just about quantity — although on the best days there are over 100 catches. It's about quality. Record-breaking specimens with pure Amazonian genetics and abundant food in the lake.

Prepare to face giants. Lake Manso is where they live.

No Water Level Issues. Fishing All Year.

Lake Manso is a controlled-level reservoir — meaning there are no sudden water level changes. Rained? The Peacock Bass keep striking. Water levels remain stable and fishing stays productive throughout the season, from February through September.

Vessels

Comfort on the Water

All fishing trips take place on Bass Boats — vessels designed specifically for sportfishing. Unlike traditional boats, the bass boat offers:

  • Elevated and stable platform — more space and balance for standing casts
  • Silent electric motor — precise approach without spooking the fish
  • Wide and clean deck — obstacle-free, ideal for fly fishing
  • Fast displacement — powerful outboard motor to cover more of the lake

18 bass boats available — one per fishing pair, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout the day.
