A large and beautiful country, typically known for being the land of the traditional asados, gauchos, agriculture, mate, wine and the tango, is also identified as being a world class fly fishing destination where big wild Browns, Rainbows, Atlantic Land-locked Salmon and Brookies can make your trip unforgettable.
Trout and land-lock salmon were introduced in our rivers and lakes in 1904 and since then, their wild genes have remained intact. The adaptation of these fish was excellent, finding in our pristine waters an amazing habitat. Their numbers increased very fast, spreading to all our Andean river system......
Today, thanks to those visionary people, we can enjoy the " finest fly fishing in the world ". |

Patagonia Argentina |

As a region, it includes the following provinces; Neuquen, Rio Negro, Chubut, Santa Cruz, Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica and Islands on the Atlantico Sur.
Located in Neuquen province, on the North West side of Patagonia Argentina, on the border of the Lanin National Park, San Martin de los Andes is our base and home town.
The geography, pleasant weather, wild life, crystal clear lakes and rivers, and the low population areas, make this area a great destination for the outdoors lovers; and of course, a paradise for those who love fly fishing. |
