Last year we welcomed Stephan Dombaj and the crew from The Fly Fishing Nation to Pirarucu for a memorable week of fly fishing for arapaima. They were joined by Ben Furminsky and Matt Harris, and the trip was documented in the film “Gigas.” The film is now live online for viewers to enjoy in its entirety.

Pirarucú is located within the Mamirauá Reserve, about 600 km west of Manaus, a complex of lakes and channels between the Solimões River and Japurá River.
Mamirauá was the first Sustainable Development Reserve in Brazil, legislated by the Government of Amazonas in 1996, and remains the largest arapaima reserve in the world.
Untamed Angling, 20 years later, are opening the gates for the most wild and virgin Arapaima fishery on planet.
There are unique fishing destinations in the world – wild locations where getting there is half the adventure and one can experience life-changing angling experiences.
At Untamed Angling we dream about these waters, and pursue the most remote and difficult-to-operate angling destinations in the world, undeterred by the distances, difficulties, obstacles, and the naysayers. We are wholly driven by legends, myths, and the spirit of adventure.
It’s the unknown that drives us each and every day in creating and developing the most exotic, remote and spectacular angling odysseys that have ever been made available to the fly fishing industry.
It’s the soul of our being:
venturing deep into nature.
