Argentina Fly Fishing
Adventurix offers
Argentina fishing trips to many destinations throughout the country, from the northern rivers of Corrientes (for Golden Dorado) to the southern reaches of Tierra del Fuego (for sea-run brown trout). We would like to know which, if any, of these
Argentina fly fishing trips you have taken before, or maybe a friend of yours has taken, and which one of these locations interests you the most.
In the mean time, we would like to tell you a little bit about what we have to offer our guest that are interested in Argentina Trout fishing—from Bariloche to Tierra del Fuego.
When one thinks of
trout fishing in Argentina, the word “Patagonia” always comes to mind. Now location in “The Patagonia” is more popular among visiting fly anglers than San Carlos de Bariloche—or simply “Bariloche” (pronounced BAR-E-LO-CHAY) for short. One of the most productive rivers in the Bariloche area is the Caleufu. The Rio Caleufu is situated approximately 130 kilometers from Bariloche, and is one of the region’s most popular rivers to experience the best trout fishing in Argentina for rainbows and browns.
The float trips are very popular among serious anglers because they offer anyone a chance at the biggest fish in the river. One is simply able to travel much further, increasing the chances of encounters with big trout. Furthermore, float fishing embodies what Argentina fishing is all about—being out there and seeing as much as possible of this beautiful country by floating for miles, instead of being restricted to a few miles of a river’s curve.
Fortunately, for the sport of Argentina fly fishing, the wildlife department has designated rivers like the Caleufu, the Collon Cura, and others as “fly fishing only”. This has been a step in the right direction when it comes to reducing the number of poachers and locals that are killing the fish in these rivers for consumption.
Another classic part of an Argentina trout fishing trip is the famous “asado”. An asado is a barbecue of assorted grilled meats that every self-respecting Argentine knows how to prepare, and your Argentina fishing guide is no exception. You will enjoy an asado every afternoon as a welcome break to the intense Argentina fly fishing experience offered by these rivers. The lunch would not be complete without a fine Argentine wine from the Mendoza region, and most guides offer a selection of several grapes for you to choose from, including: Malbec, Merlot, Tempranillo, and Syrah.
After a light dessert, you are back in the water casting for hungry trout. Most fishing is done with nymphs and streamers, but depending on the conditions and time of the year, dry flies (attractors) are sometimes used. A six weight rod with a sinking line should do the trick, but don’t forget to bring an extra spool with a floating line in case the fish are accepting dry flies.
