JP DeRose's Recommended Tackle for Golden Dorado at Don Joaquin River Lodge
Television host and world traveler JP DeRose is as much of a tackle junkie as I am—possibly even more. So when I learned that he'd fished at Don Joaquin River Lodge last year, I wanted to pick his brain about exactly what he'd pack for the trip. At ICAST, I kept the question simple: If you were headed back to Argentina to fish for golden dorado, which rods and reels would be the first ones in your travel case?
His answers weren't theoretical. They were the exact Shimano and G. Loomis combinations he'd trust for throwing big crankbaits, topwaters, jerkbaits, and swimbaits to one of freshwater's hardest-fighting predators. Watch the interview below, then scroll down for direct links to every rod and reel JP recommended so you can build your own Argentina tackle lineup before your next golden dorado adventure.
