Fishing near Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires sits along the Río de la Plata, one of the widest rivers in the world, where it meets the Paraná Delta — a vast, labyrinthine system of channels, lagoons, and tributaries that forms the backbone of the local fishing scene. The delta is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and draws anglers primarily for golden dorado, one of the most explosive freshwater sport fish on the planet. Day trips from the city reach productive water in under an hour, making this one of the most accessible urban fishing destinations in South America.
