CENTRAL
PATAGONIA,CHILE - Deep in the heart of the Andes Mountains
is an area that offers unsurpassed fly fishing and scenic beauty
both in rivers, lakes and lagoons. You will be fascinated by
snow capped mountain peaks, glaciers, hot springs, waterfalls
as well as 9 lb trout! Everywhere you look is a lifetime-type
view!
PATAGONIA,
ARGENTINA- Just outside of Bariloche, Argentina is the Rio
Limay and the Rio Manso as well as San Martin de los Andes and
many other rivers outside of Esquel. We outfit these Argentine
destinations with our guides Martin and Dereo and have access
to private water ranches.
BELIZE,CENTRAL
AMERICA- Within the nearby waters swim trophy bonefish,
permit, and tarpon. Most if not all of these fish have never
seen a fly. Only recently have road improvements and electricity
been introduced to the region, meaning previous anglers could
only take advantage of this area by long boat rides.
LAKE
DISTRICT, CHILE ~ The 9th and 10th regions of Chile are
known for their unbelievable beauty, great fly fishing as well
as volcanoes, rivers and National Parks. With rivers and lakes
practically everywhere, the choice daily is what direction to
head into! We float as well as wade these rivers, lakes and
spring creeks in search of your fly fishing adventure
SOUTHERN
PATAGONIA, CHILE... fly fishing's final frontier. Visit
up to 6 rivers in one week! Visit Southern Chile's premier
fly fishing destinations. Excellent guides, accommodations
