South American Trout Experience
February 10 to 20, 2027 Hosted Fly Fishing in Chile & Argentina Join us for an unforgettable fly fishing adventure in Patagonia, where the rugged beauty of Chile and Argentina meets world-class trout fishing. This hosted experience is your gateway to exploring some of the most pristine and productive waters on the planet, home to wild brown, rainbow, and brook trout in breathtaking natural settings. Trout Fishing in Chile In southern Chile, anglers will discover an untouched wilderness of glacial lakes, emerald rivers, and dramatic fjords. The regions of Coyhaique, Aysén, and Tierra del Fuego offer endless opportunities to wade, float, and explore remote waters teeming with trout. You’ll fish legendary rivers like the Baker, Futaleufú, and Simpson, where trophy trout thrive in crystal-clear currents against a backdrop of soaring peaks and ancient forests. Trout Fishing in Argentina Across the border in Argentina’s Esquel region, the adventure continues. Nestled in the heart of Patagonia, Esquel is surrounded by spring creeks, rivers, and lakes that produce some of South America’s finest trout fishing. Waters like the Rio Corcovado, known for its sea-run brown trout, and the iconic Futaleufú (Rio Grande) offer exciting chances to land large, hard-fighting fish. The nearby Lago Rosario, Lago Rivadavia, and the breathtaking Los Alerces National Park round out the experience, delivering stunning scenery and diverse fishing, from dry fly to streamer, stillwater to fast-moving freestone. Season & Style The fishing season runs November through May, with December to March offering peak conditions. Whether you prefer stalking fish in small streams, drifting big water, or casting from shore into alpine lakes, you’ll find the variety and quality of fishing unmatched. Beyond the Rod This hosted trip is about more than just fishing. You’ll enjoy:
