| Miles and miles of private access water on multi-thousand acre estancias
(ranches), where you might never see another angler during your fishing day. Large Rainbows and Browns (and landlocked
salmon on certain rivers) are actively feeding... and present the wonderful challenge we all love. Every trip is
a custom designed itinerary that allows clients to select from 5-6 lodges and a variety of rivers, such as Arroyo
Verde, on the incredibly beautiful Rio Traful, Tipiliuke, on the majestic and world-renowned Rio Chimehuin, San Huberto,
on the Malleo, perhaps the most amazing and perfect trout stream in the world. CollonCura Lodge on the productive
Rio Collon Cura and the smallest river we fish with some of the largest trout, the Filo Hua Hum, staying at Filo
Lodge. You'll lodge and dine in very comfortable accommodations with private bath and enjoy professional, English-speaking
fly fishing guides, the finest Argentine wines and exceptional meals with uniformed service personnel to cater
to your every need. This is very civilized fishing! |

Hola!
My name is Alberto Cordero-Biedma. I am the owner and principal
guide for Fly fishing Andes. I invite you to come to Argentina to experience the romance, the beauty, the warmth
and hospitality of native Argentines as they welcome you to their private estancias...and most of all the wonderful
fly fishing on private access waters which rivals that of any Rainbow and Brown trout fishery in the world. We're
very excited to share our incredible fishing with you! Especially the dry fly action!
We offer you complete flexibility in choosing how you wish to enjoy Northern Patagonia. We do not offer standard
packages; instead you may design your own trip or tell us what you prefer and we'll design one for you to consider. |
Stay as few or as many days as you wish. Stay at one, two, three
or four lodges. We will plan and execute your trip so thoroughly that all you will have to do is relax, pick up
your rod, fish...and enjoy! We promise! We have a passion for our natural Patagonia and for our wild trout...we
take pleasure in sharing these resources with our guests.
Compared to the rest of Patagonia, the Northern Zone gives you
kinder weather and gentler winds. Normally we experience delightfully warm weather with lighter winds from late
December to early April. The exceptional, wild McCloud-strain rainbows, German browns, Sebago landlocked salmon
and Eastern brookies that fill the pristine lakes, streams and rivers in Patagonia were transplanted to the cold,
gin clear Andean waters over 95 years ago. |
|
|
Depending on your preference for fly fishing, be it dry fly, wet
fly, streamers or all of these, we can offer a variety of waters that will cater to your pleasure. Most of our
guests over the years have elected to visit two or three different estancias in a fishing vacation lasting ten
days to two weeks. If you can only stay a week, we suggest you visit at least two different waters. We'll work
hard to exceed your expectations and make your visit to Argentina your best fishing experience ever. We have been
fortunate over the years to fill our vacancies early. To avoid disappointment, we suggest you begin your booking
process a year or so in advance. We give priority bookings to returning guests. Please know that fishing conditions
vary from year to year depending on our weather.
Gracias,
Alberto
About the Services: "Select from one, two, three
or four different venues for your fishing vacation. We offer flexibility above all else."
Arroyo Verde
Arroyo Verde is an elegant lodge located on the Traful, the premier
landlocked Atlantic salmon river in Patagonia. The river runs 10 miles through the valley, and it has some of the
most spectacular views of any Patagonian river! |
|
|
Record fish are an 18-lb. salmon, a 16-lb. brown and a 23-lb. rainbow!
The lodge, which is a traditional estancia in a magnificent Andean valley, was called by Forbes Magazine: "the
finest fishing lodge in the world, period!" Three or four days at this unique lodge, wading this marvelous
river, will challenge your fly-fishing skills, and invite you to contemplate the extraordinary scenery. The food
and wine served at Arroyo Verde rival any great restaurant in the world! |
|
Tipiliuke
Tipiliuke is right in the heart of the most famous trout waters in
Argentina... many say in the world. The lovely stone lodge shares its magnificent architecture with the rest of
the buildings on this 90-year old, 50,000-acre, deer, cattle and sheep "estancia".
|
|
Seven miles of the world-renowned Chimehuin run through the ranch.
The Chimehuin, with an amazing variety of waters, brings out the best of fly-fishermen as they are challenged to
catch wild rainbows and
browns up to 30". Average fish run 16" to 20", while
21" to 24" trout are often taken. Seven miles of Rio Quilquihue -- a delightful dry-fly stream also run
through the ranch. Fishing this private-access section of the Chimehuin, guided by top professional and enjoying
the lodging, food, wine and marvelous settings at Tipiliuke is an unforgettable experience. |
San Huberto
San Huberto is one of the most traditional lodges in Patagonia and
has capacity for twelve guests. It is on a 25,000-acre ranch with access to 20 miles of the Malleo, one of the
world's great dry-fly streams.
|
|
The Malleo, which is small in comparison to most Patagonia rivers,
is the one in Argentina with the densest, most frequent and most predictable hatches. It is an almost perfect
trout stream, combining easy wading, diversity of water types and just the right amount of riparian vegetation
The trout quality is second to none, and you'll appreciate the spectacular views such the majestic Lanin volcano.
This is the one lodge in Patagonia that regularly gets fully-booked by early July for the months of January, February
and March. If you decide to experience this great lodge andstream, do yourself a favor by not waiting too long
to book. |
|
Collon Cura Lodge
To fish the remote private water, the best water on the Collon Cura,
clients stay at Collon Cura Lodge. From mid-January to mid-March, small bait fish migrate into the Collon Cura
and the trout feed on them voraciously. Mixed with inch worms and evening caddis hatches, the Collon Cura can produce
some incredible fishing. The lodge is not as charming and picturesque as some, but what you are buying here is
location, location, location.
Filo Lodge
Filo Lodge, located on the Filo Hua Hum River, takes just 8 clients
at a time. This elegant lodge is located in a spectacular remote setting, which ensures privacy and little angling
pressure.
The Filo Hua Hum, a tributary of the Caleufu River, runs for approximately 7 miles between two lakes and offers
fantastic dry fly fishing, beginning with dragonflies in January. This river holds fish that average 16-20",
up to 10 pounds!
Much of the fishing is sight fishing. This is not a place to catch great numbers of trout, it's a place to stalk
and catch several good sized fish a day, that are used to looking up and taking dry flies.
