You will be trolling and casting using big rapalas. The Payara is a fast and excellent fighter also acrobatic, very aggressive. The WORLD RECORD was caught here at 36 pounds and some even larger but not yet certified, 40 pounders Payaras has been landed by family members of the owners but bigger has been seen. The average number of Payaras per angler per day is 8 from 26 to 30 pounds. It is recommended to bring enough divers rapalas (size 7-9 inches) since Payaras are very strong and can make you lose your rapalas easily.
