This week, Kendjam welcomed an all-women group of anglers with a growing and inspiring presence on the water. Their energy, skill, and sense of adventure shaped a week full of meaningful moments and memorable catches.
Midweek, the lodge was joined by Rodrigo and two visiting artists, Vaidas Uselis and Jess McGlothling, whose creative lenses brought a new perspective to the beauty of our surroundings and the experience of fly fishing in this remote region.
With water levels continuing to drop and temperatures rising, peacock bass, bicuda, and wolf fish became the stars of the week.
