With its rugged terrain, panoramic beauty and varied fish populations, Argentina
offers one of the world's most rewarding expeditions for outdoorsmen. It's
no wonder why South America has attracted some of the best-known fly fishermen,
including Joe Brooks, Roderick Haig-Brown, Earnest Schwiebert and Lefty Kreh.
The trout and dorado are biting!
Trout
Covering roughly the southern most one-third of South America, including much
of Argentina and Chile, Patagonia is a land of fly-fishing adventure and opportunity.
Untamed and beautiful yet civilized and welcoming, it is much like our Old West —many
of the rivers see only a limited number of anglers in a single season. Because
of this light fishing pressure and ideal habitat, Patagonian trout can grow to
trophy-size and even world-record dimensions.
Patagonia offers a wide array of choices for the visiting fisherman. From the
famous rivers of the northern region to the remote streams of the central and
southern zones, there is something for everyone. The waters of Argentina and
Chile are home to rainbows, browns, brookies and landlocked Atlantic salmon.
You may even connect with a giant Pacific salmon!
Dorado
The dorado is one of the greatest sporting fish in freshwater. A member of the
Salmonidae family, it is strong-willed and very combative, an extraordinary adversary
on both fly and casting/spinning gear. Watching one of these big, golden aerialists
cartwheel its way across the water is incredibly exciting.
Dorados live in the warm waters of northeastern Argentina and are especially
abundant in the Parana River and tributaries, the Corrientes and the fascinating
Ibera Marsh. Whatever your goal, our experienced guides will work hard to make
sure your fly-fishing adventure is a successful one.
