The choice is yours – dove hunting, pigeon shooting, Peacock Bass fishing or all of the above! No place in the world can offer a CAST & BLAST program like you’ll find with Detail Company Adventures in Bolivia.

Peacock Bass Fishing in Bolivia ( July 15 – October 31 )
Peacock Bass fishing in Bolivia is quickly becoming a “must-do trip” for many international sportsmen. The northern state of El Beni is where you can find some of South America’s premier Peacock Bass fishing along with monster catfish, ferocious piranha and more. There are countless lakes, lagoons and rivers in this area with virtually no fishing pressure! 2-hour charter flights from Santa Cruz take our fishermen right into the heart of the jungle where the best Peacock Bass fishing is. This not only eliminates competition, but provides for a fishing trip and nature experience unlike any other. The action is non-stop – fishermen can expect to catch 40 - 50 fish per day! The Peacock Bass generally range from 2 to 10 lbs and always put up a heck of a fight.



More Than a Fishing Trip –
While landing tons of Peacock Bass will be the highlight of your Bolivia fishing trip, countless species of wildlife abound and make for an unforgettable eco experience as well. The sights and sounds of this undisturbed ecosystem are truly amazing. Our fishing area is teeming with rare birds, fish, land animals and plant life. The roar of jaguars is common in the nighttime – the call of the wild is real in the jungles of Northern Bolivia. Guests enjoy this amazing safari-style environment in safety, with security and comfort. Expect the fishing trip of a lifetime and a nature experience second to none!

Dove Hunting in Bolivia ( April 01 – October 31 )
Over the last few years, we have been dove hunting all over Bolivia in search of the country’s most productive fields. We’ve established camps and set up lodges in Bolivia’s best dove hunting areas. Recently, we acquired Bolivia’s flagship dove hunting lodge – appropriately called “The Rock.” This amazing dove hunting lodge sits high upon a huge rock mountain overlooking thousands of acres of sunflower fields. There are also countless acres of sorghum fields and numerous watering holes that make this area prime dove habitat! Drives from the lodge to the birds average 15 minutes, but sometimes the shooting is done within walking distance from “The Rock.” The lodge can hold up to 11 hunters at a time very comfortably. Features include a big-screen satellite TV, Jacuzzi, a pool table, an open bar and wireless Internet. Getting to the lodge is easy – you have your choice of a 2.5-hr drive or a 45-minute charter flight. With such short drives to the field, an endless supply of birds and an incredible lodge to boot, dove hunting in Bolivia just doesn’t get any better than this!
