Recent Trip Fishing Amazon BKK – Alligator Gar Dream Catches

This recent trip fishing Amazon BKK Fishing Park saw our Argentine guests enjoy an incredible day. Their top target was the alligator gar, and they could not have been happier. Before every trip, Fish Thailand always asks about preferred species and fishing methods to ensure the experience matches each angler’s goals. Planning ahead makes every moment on the water more productive and enjoyable.

What to Watch Out for When Planning Your Fishing Amazon BKK Trip

A key detail when planning your fishing Thailand adventure is to be cautious of prices that seem unusually low. Cheaper options usually mean a half ticket, allowing lure fishing only all day. In contrast, the full ticket includes lure fishing in the morning and bait fishing after lunch. Bait fishing catches significantly more arapaima and other species, giving a much more rewarding experience. While lure fishing is great for enthusiasts, skipping bait fishing means missing out on multiple trophy catches. Always consider value versus cost—spending a little more ensures the full experience and more successful fishing.

Alligator Gar Action

For our Argentine friends, dreams came true many times over with multiple big alligator gar catches. The Fish Thailand guide used years of Amazon BKK experience to match the correct technique with the right bait, maximizing every opportunity. The excitement of landing these massive fish left guests thrilled and made the day unforgettable.

Arapaima – The Cherry on Top

Although arapaima was not the main target, guests still enjoyed catching this incredible species. These giant fish add an unforgettable highlight to any fishing trip. The arapaima perfectly complemented the alligator gar catches, making the day feel like a complete trophy adventure.

Redtail Catfish – Stunning Photo Opportunities

Fishing at Amazon BKK focuses on iconic Amazon fishes rather than local Thailand fishes. Catching some Amazon redtail catfish added variety and spectacle to the trip. These stunning, photogenic creatures are a must for anglers wanting both action and memories from their Amazon BKK experience.
