Prime fishing locations are found along the entire length of the arroyo, particularly where structure creates current breaks and ambush points. The confluence area where Arroyo Saladillo meets the Rio de Zora is a notable hotspot, as the mixing waters and varied bottom create ideal holding water for dorado and other predators. Deep undercut banks, logjams, and the mouths of smaller feeder creeks consistently hold fish. The area near its junction with the main Pilcomayo River is also productive, especially for larger migratory fish.
