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

Patagonia Argentina |
With an approximate surface of 787.000 km2 (almost the third part of the total surface of Argentina), Patagonia is located at the southern corner of the American Continent. As a region it includes the following provinces; Neuquen, Rio Negro, Chubut, Santa Cruz, Tierra del Fuego, Antarctica and Islands on the Atlantico Sur.
Tactically located in Neuquen province, on the North West side of Patagonia Argentina, just on the border with 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 populated areas, make this area a great destination for the outdoors lovers; and of course, feel like paradise for those who love fly fishing. |
SAN MARTIN DE LOS ANDES - Our home base town |
How to get here....
When you are coming from outside of our country your first stop should be in Buenos Aires Ezeiza International Airport, about 40' from the main Capital Federal.

Today, Aerolineas Argentinas is the only flight carrier that comes into San Martin de los Andes 3 times a week (Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays with one stop at Esquel Airport). Chapelco is the name of our local airport.
Unfortunatelly Aerolineas Argentinas changes this "rules" offently so we tend to work in a saffer way with Bariloche Airport.
It takes about 2 hours of jet flight to fly from Buenos Aires to San Martin de los Andes or Bariloche Airport, where we will be expecting you ready to depart to our programmed destination.
Bariloche offers alos the chance to flight using LAN Chile and many more available flights to choose from.
Depending your itinerary and the first place where you will be lodging considering that the transfer by car or Van from Bariloche will need between 1 hour and 3 hours. |
