Fishing near Esquina, Corrientes

Esquina sits in Corrientes province where the Río Corrientes meets the Río Paraná, forming a sprawling delta of channels, lagoons, sandbars, and marshlands. The city is one of the most recognized fishing destinations in Argentina, built around the pursuit of dorado — locally called "el tigre del río" — along with surubí, pacú, and a wide range of other native species. The convergence of these two river systems, together with the surrounding wetlands and dozens of arroyos, produces a fishery that draws anglers from across the country and abroad.
