How long did it take to get there? about 48 hrs travel time. quite a bit shorter on the return downstream. We left Oct 2nd from springfield to Dallas had a short wait to next flight, then to Panama, layed over there for a few hrs then took our flight to Manaus and landed 3 am the 3rd. Then took a 3+ hr trip through the jungle in a Sprinter van with the gang (really bad roads) , then once at the Tucuna we boarded the boat and spent another 17 hrs upriver on the boat before we got to the reservation where we fished.. the water was extremely low almost the whole trip.. Had Dolphins steal at least one 15 lb Grande after we released it... snagged in outlet 3, Quillback, nomolites and 6 others 9
