Fishing RIVER MONSTERS in Suriname + Jungle Trek | Palumeu, Suriname
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- After an eventful first day in Palumeu, Suriname, I had even more exciting adventures in store for day two! Come along with me and my guides, Julian and Ose, as we fish for river monsters in the Tapanahony River and go on another awesome hike into the Surinamese jungle!
My morning began with me on a boat in the middle of the Tapanahony River at 6:20 in the morning! This was going to be an awesome day and I could not wait to get started.
My guides were born in the jungle and grew up there, so I had the best guides possible in Palumeu. They learn to live in harmony with nature and the river. It’s something most city people never get to experience!
We’d be having breakfast on a rock by the shore. We had coffee, bananas, tea, eggs, and raisin bread. I made a delicious egg sandwich. There was some gouda cheese in there with it. The black coffee was also super strong! As I ate, a group of about 20 people arrived. They were really cool tourists from the Netherlands!
I learned that the tide sometimes is too high to eat on this rock, but usually, you’ll have at least one meal here in Palumeu. We’d chill there for a while, and then we’d head out on our jungle trek. I was really hoping to see some wildlife, which is why I cam here.
We headed out on a one-hour boat ride. As we rode, we saw four yellow-headed vultures drying their wings in a tree. We passed through some rapids, but luckily, our guides knew exactly what they were doing and navigated it like a pro. The water funnels its way between the rocks and creates the rapids!
We landed and crossed lots of boulders so we could get a better perspective of the rapids. It was so cool, but we had to be careful because you can easily slip on a rock. The spot we found was epic! The rapids took up the entire width of the river and cascaded between and around lots of rocks! There was also a lot of seaweed in the river.
My guides caught some small fish to try to use as bait to catch piranha. They found a huge fish and hacked at it with a machete and brought it in. This fish is normally very expensive! We used the organs to fish for more fish!
I followed my guides across the rocks. I had to be super careful following them. They kept moving around to find a good spot, but ultimately didn’t catch anything.
From there, we hopped back on the boat for a few minutes and rode back to base camp, Mabuka. Then, we headed into the jungle. I learned that the trails were created by locals to create pathways for the Amerindians to move through the jungle to visit their families.
We found a tarantula’s burrow, but beyond that, we weren’t having much luck finding animals. Wildlife is very hit-or-miss in the wild, but I was surprised we hadn’t really seen anything. We arrived in the secondary forest, which has lots of low vegetation and bush. It’s super dense!
The primary forest has way less bush and lots of super tall trees. We found a dry leaf frog on the ground. He looked just like a leaf! We also found a tree whose bark is used to treat malaria. After an hour, our trek was nearing its end. It was more intense than yesterday’s because of the bush.
Our captain caught lots of bait while we were gone. I was ready to fish again! We headed up the rapids, which was such a rush! I almost flew out of the boat! We got to a calm area and started fishing. There was a piranha taking all of our bait, but unfortunately, we didn’t catch anything. But it was still an epic morning!
I hope you liked coming fishing and trekking with me in Palumeu! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave me a comment. Also, please subscribe to my channel so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Hi David, So you see there are not only Piranha in the Surinamerivers, but also a lot of Catfishes and they are very sweet. Jungle Life is ok. especially the spooky stories by campfire in the Amazon Jungle of Suriname.
Enjoy suriname david👌
David I'm a subscribers of your page I recommend you visit Guyana ignored the negativeness you probably might have heard about Guyana
Davidsbeenhere hey what happened to imro?
Suriname is my home place❤❤
Finally a guide who communicates and actually explains things in an understandable way. Nice vlog!
Gracella Pansa thanos dude!
You won't spot most of the animals by walking around. But they are there and have already spotted you.
Word. 😁
Forget the piranha 😀anjumara is the one you want. Can I say that we have to appreciate and cherish our amerindians. They have so much knowledge about the interior and can teach us city folks so much!
Totally agree!
Thank you verry much
anjurmara actually eat piranhas
This was the best jungle expirience so far🌴❤Love the guides and kaptin 💪🏽👌🏽❤🇸🇷🌴🌻
Mireillstuu thank you!
I am from SURINAME 🇸🇷🇸🇷 born in SURINAME
Rain forest is the heart of this earth,B.C. Canada,has one.We have to stop the logging in these areas,or we will lose it forever,all those trees giving off oxogen and all the plants that have been found to help us and the still undiscovered plants are vital to protect.This series David, is so awe inspiring.🇨🇦👍🌎
Your guides are wonderful, very good English and explanations, perhaps one of your most interesting Suriname video!
greatings to all of you and something to be proud of thanks to David for sharing this video GOD BLESS U ALL
Wow nice to see this place again, i was there in 1998, good fishing and hunting, Thanks for sharing.
so you've been through all this time, great. I am very curious about your new videos. I am also grateful that you have chosen our country for adventures🤗😊
This was one of the best videos about Suriname.!!
Thank you !!
If I'm not mistaken anjoemara is actually a freshwater wolf fish.
Correct
yes, video tip, watch fish finder suriname (rip) he used to take tourist into the interior and catch bigger ones then this :)
That fish is one of the most popular in Guyana 🇬🇾my country real sweet fish 🐟😋enjoyed ✌🍻🇨🇦🇬🇾
The animals were all there, but through the greenery it's very difficult to spot. You need trained eyes. Come back and stay 2 months during November and December and get to experience hunting season with the locals. You'll learn a lot.
Happy New year Davidsbeenhere.
I love my country SURINAME 🇸🇷
Keep up the good work David. 👏👏
Life is so expensive take care of yourself and family members. ❤

Great video David...
Awesome content great videos🇸🇷
Julius is great
The Anjoemara is best known as Wolf fish
This is my country
Beautiful video
The fish at 8:19 is called a Wolfish.
Wow your vlog is so amazing. Btw the famous fish is many I believe. And maybe you are in the wrong country try it's neighbor
Let me guess you are guyanese huh
David, you can't go bustling through the forest and then expect to see wildlife everywhere.
Making all that noise scares them away nd as it is most animals are in hiding. You have to stake them out, stay very quiet and be very patient to actually see them come out. On tours like this you simply do not have the time to do that. Do not compare it to a safari in Africa, where they have the wildlife collected in natureparks.
Mirip iwak gabos gaes
Nice
nice
Are u still in suriname
1 dislike from the fish😀😀
First comment
Hahaha his hook was too big to catch a pirana
i hope not too many people will see this. its the way it is because only we knew about it.
15:10 a cure for malaria.
Couldn't catch the name of the three? What's it called?
Cinchona officinalis | Cinchona tree | Kinine tree
The tree is the cinchona tree and it is used to make Quinine, the most famous malaria medication.
@@GregoryRayDorff Thanksss!
@@richardmurray4605 Thanks for the explanation!
My guy said it looks like a catch fish are u serious, it has scales, does a catch fish have scales I don't think so, btw fyi it's a wolf fish.
No "Imro". Finally!!
Spend your night there out in the open.
