Paulo
Returning to Brazil after many years living abroad, Paulo came to the Marié with a clear objective. Choosing the right place made all the difference. Despite rising water levels, his persistence paid off when he connected with a 22 lb peacock bass, a powerful fish that perfectly symbolized both his return and the river's strength. A memorable way to close the year on the Marié.
