The name of the village Oromomo — the access point to the Pluma and Itirisama Rivers in Bolivia — means “Devil’s Gold.” Apparently, the elders who named the village felt that riches of the region were somehow cursed. But for fly fishers “Devil’s Gold” reflects brightly, referring to golden dorado, one of the wildest of freshwater fish. Castaway Films spent a week on location shooting deep in the Bolivian jungle at Untamed Angling’s Tsimane Lodge to capture this seven minutes of video, which is some of the best there is on dorado fishing.
