FISHING: The freshwater dorado (Salminus maxillosus) known in Argentina as the "Tiger of the River" is considered to be the single most challenging native freshwater game fish of South America. It is a radiant, yellow-colored, salmon-like fish with an extremely strong jaw and sharp teeth. Unlike its cousin the salmon, however, it does not die after spawning and never swims in the ocean. The dorado is an exceptionally strong swimmer and normally ranges in size from 4 to 7 kilograms, although the world record is 24 kilograms. It hammers top-water flies with reckless abandon and immediately explodes out of the water in a series of outrageous jumps and relentless, line stripping runs. Its physical beauty, its violent strike, its long, powerful runs and its acrobatic fights are some of the qualities that make the dorado the exceptional sport fish that it is. Hambare is a strictly CATCH AND RELEASE fishery.
BIG GAME: Buffalos and wild pigs are found in their natural habitat, very large hunting areas of 10,000 hectares. Buffalos are the biggest animal that can be hunted in Argentina and weights up to 1.000 Kilograms (2,200 pounds). Keep in mind that when buffaloes are hurt, they are extremely dangerous.
The hunting day start very early when hunters leave for the hunting fields located 35 kilometers (22 miles) away. Guides will be waiting at the hunting location with horses, and the hunting equipment. The horseback riding trip, which takes almost 3 hours, crosses extensive areas of land, part of which are under water, forests, lakes or rivers. Then, hunters will meet up with another guide, who has previously arrived at the hunting field and have located the animals by using binoculars and determine the most appropriate position for shooting. After hunting, the taxidermy is conducted. The average hunting trip takes a full day; therefore lunch takes place at the hunting field.
