Catching fish in the Amazon

[Saymon]

Awesome pictures. About how much did that Pirarucu weight?

They were transferred to another tank in order to grow further, the average weight of 10 pounds in teenage ..

 

[Saymon]

Good stuff :thumbup:

Always great to see posts from folks all over the world.

Some funky lookin' big a$$ fish there (lol)

Looks like a couple, cat fish in there too?

Thanks for posting.

That's right, this tank had several fish species including several catfishes ..

 

[Saymon]

This post is as cool as your beard.

Were all of those fish caught at once?

Hahaha is my visual vacation ...

Some fish were sold and others transferred to larger tanks

 

[Saymon]

Cool! Amazing to see fish like that from other parts of the world. How often is this fish rearing tank emptied?

Thanks! Approximately twice a year..

 

[Saymon]

Thats awesome man! One thing I wanna do is go spear fishing for a giant Pirarucu...I saw it on TV once and was like wow. You ever caught arowana before?

The underwater fishing it should be exciting .. I had seen in various natural environments but had never caught any...

 

[Saymon]

Great stuff. How good is piranha to eat, and how do you cook it? That larger fish reminds me of a arajuana.( not sure if that's how it's spelled). Great post thanks for sharing

The piranha soup is much appreciated by the people of the Amazon (said to be an aphrodisiac) ...

Call the arapaima here Arunanã (Arowana) ...
