Manaka Lodge was the first upscale peacock bass fishery to be carved into the Amazon jungle and continues to remain the gold standard by which other Amazon river based peacock bass
lodges are judged. It is one of the few peacock bass lodges (if not the only one) in South America offering the opportunity to catch all four sub-species of Peacock Bass in a single day, in addition to
Payara, Sardinata, Amazon Catfish and Piranha. Manaka is located in the Amazonas region of the Venezuelan rainforest, approximately 420 miles from Caracas, at the confluence of the
Ventuari River into the mighty Orinoco. In the middle of this dense jungle and nestled along the shores of the Ventuari River sits Manaka Lodge, a five-star
fishing camp whose personnel, general manager, guides, maintenance crew, housekeeping staff and on the premises chef all look forward to offering you tremendous hospitality, in addition to a
fantastic week of fishing. The unique combination of remoteness, comfort, vast fishing area and a strict catch-and-release policy (except for a few smaller fish to sample their tasty flavor) provides
the optimum situation for catching the greatest possible numbers of trophy peacock bass. Manaka has catered to two former U.S. Presidents and has hosted several fishing film crews from ESPN.
