"While this was not my first trip to South America, it was my best. I love fishing from the boat on the go, but I was blown away by the lake fishing we experienced here. To sight cast to 18”-22” browns and see them swim 6 feet and gulp a size 6 dry fly is something I never would have thought possible. And it wasn’t a fluke, it happened over and over again! I even managed to get some great video footage of it. I enjoyed the float fishing, too – but I think the lake program these guys have discovered is the best thing going in Chile! I’ll be back, as this winter weather gives me cabin fever!"

Patagonia

Argentina and Chile


Under the Southern Cross!

Our Chilean and Argentinian destinations have been carefully researched and chosen to optimize your trout fishing vacation in the Southern Hemisphere. The lodges are strategically located within just a few miles of a wide variety of fishing access points in the Patagonia region.  There is not a better place to set up headquarters and experience all of the best fishing this famous region has to offer. The backdrop is spectacular, and the various lodges pair high quality accommodations with delicious table fare.  It’s difficult to imagine anything better than a great day floating a beautiful river , followed by a gourmet dinner with good friends, and topped off by an evening soak in the hot tub enjoying a glass of local wine under the southern sky. . 

While the main quarry is Brown and Rainbow trout, there are also some lakes that hold Brook trout, and also several rivers that get runs of large Chinook Salmon if you're there at the right time. While we do fish a lot of big dry flies in both the streams and the rivers, many of the larger Browns (like 24"+) are caught using large streamers with some mad action.

Reservations

  • Contact Steve Joyce at 509-929-1803.  Steve guided in Chile and has worked and fished in a number of different countries with the outfitters we utilize on these trips.

A Quality Trip


The diverse fishing program includes float fishing rivers, wading small streams, sight fishing big dries to 18”-22” Browns in lakes, and even stalking trout in spring creeks.  To say these guides are “fishy” is an understatement. They are a seasoned crew of Montana Trout Bums who are not only going to do whatever it takes to get you to the right place at the right time; but also work their butts off to get you into the Brown trout that you’ve seen over and over in your dreams. Browns dominate the local waters but there are large bows to be had.  Rio Simpson offers a bonus of big King Salmon if you’re there between January and March. No matter which type of fishing you desire, the backdrop of the Andes are always present, looming in the distance. This trip is unparalleled in allowing you to experience ALL that South America has to offer!


Cost

  • Trout fishing trips in Argentina and Chile vary a little, but are typically in the 3500.00/ angler range based on double occupancy. Give us a call and we'll go over the particulars of each destination with you to best meet your desires.


Expectations

  • The fishing season in South America runs from late December through March. There are certain periods during that timeframe when there are less bugs, nicer weather, better lake fishing, better Salmon fishing, etc... Naturally, we'll advise you on the location and time frame that would best meet your needs!
     
  • We utilize several different lodges in Chile and South America who we have known for years and have a great deal of confidence in their ability to show you a great time! These are trips that you will be trout fishing like you're accustomed to trout fishing in the States - from the boat on the go!
