The guided fishing programs are designed to offer a complete and personalized experience on the rivers and lakes of Northern Patagonia. Depending on the time of the season, water conditions, and trout activity, your independent guide will choose the most suitable destination for the day.
Every day offers a different way to experience fly fishing in Argentina. You might find yourself floating the legendary Upper Limay River through the vast Patagonian steppe—where you can spot native bird species and soaring condors—or exploring remote, crystal-clear lakes surrounded by native Patagonian forests and snow-capped mountains.
All programs are entirely private and tailored to your experience, interests, and expectations. Whether you are an experienced angler hunting for a trophy or trying fly fishing for the first time, your day is fully outfitted and expertly guided by a local professional.
