Fishing near Uberlândia, Minas Gerais

Uberlândia sits in the Triângulo Mineiro, the westernmost tip of Minas Gerais, surrounded by cerrado rivers that draw anglers from across the region. The Rio Araguari — an important tributary of the Rio Paranaíba — runs close to the city and is widely regarded as one of the best fishing rivers in the Triângulo Mineiro, with rocky rapids, deep pools, and stretches 80–150 metres wide between Araguari and Uberlândia. The Represa Miranda and the free-flowing sections of the Paranaíba add further variety, making this one of the more productive freshwater fishing areas in interior Brazil.
