A breathtaking video is attracting attention on social networks, in which an experienced fisherman captured the incredible capture of a large dorado on the rapids of Rio Manso, in the state of Minas Gerais. In the images, the fisherman demonstrates his dexterity in handling fish.
The waters of the Manso River are known for their many species of fish, but the dorado (Salminus brasiliensis) attracts the attention of fishermen and sport fishers. Due to its impressive size and powerful fighting, dorado is considered one of the most desirable and difficult species for fishermen.
The video, recorded in a breathtaking sequence, shows the moment when the fisherman casts his artificial bait into the rapids and is soon caught off guard by a strong dorado hook. The fish begins an intense struggle for salvation, vigorously swimming against the current and jumping a lot. The dexterity and skill of the fisherman are clearly visible as he strives to masterfully manage the fight.
After an exciting and adrenaline-filled fight, the fisherman finally manages to defeat the giant dorado, which has opened up in front of the camera in its entirety. The impressive size of the fish is admired and then released back into the waters of the Manso River, ensuring the continuity of the species and the preservation of this beautiful specimen of the local fauna.
Dorado is a species that requires management and conservation care as it faces significant threats such as habitat loss and overfishing. Sustainable sport fishing with catch and release practices is becoming fundamental to ensure the protection of this species and the conservation of the aquatic ecosystems in which it lives.
