More on Fishing in Argentina

Crystal Waters
Argentina fly-fishing is most famous for the large sea-run brown trout of Tierra del Fuego, the pristine rainbow trout of northern Patagonia, and the fierce golden dorado of Argentina’s northernmost territories.

Casting for big Sea Trout in the wilds of Tierra de Fuego
Tierra del Fuego hosts the leviathan sea trout that average over 10 pounds and commonly exceed 15 pounds. These powerful fish are tackled with double-handed Spey rods in the Patagonian tundra of the south.

The stunning scenery in Northern Patagonia
In northern Patagonia amidst the Andes there are many exquisite rivers full of pristine rainbow trout all taking natural patterns. The rivers vary in size, as do the fish, all among some of the most incredible scenery in world.

The beautiful Golden Dorado
Fly-fishing for golden dorado is a burgeoning sport in the north of Argentina. These huge and powerful predators offer the best pound for pound challenges on the end of a flyline and are fished with wire trace due to their sharp teeth and powerful jaws.
The distances travelled to reach the fishing are very large so several days are needed in order to enjoy any one location.
