Argentina ▪ 5-Star Challhuaquen Lodge

Patagonia Trout

   Browns, rainbows and brook trout average 12-20 inches. Intermediate fly anglers can expect to land trout over 20-inches and experienced anglers have a good chance of landing 5-15-pound trout. Their fishing program is based on the Futaleufú River with many other river options available. Many rivers contain landlocked salmon which can exceed 10-pounds. Season runs November first thru April 30.

   This area is regarded as one of the most important salmonid fishing places in the world. Glacial lakes and hundreds of rivers and streams produce a variety of trout as well as salmon which were introduced in the area 100-years ago from all over the world. Good fishing in crystalline water. Scenery is comparable to Montana 50-years ago. For beginning anglers, packages include the use of fishing equipment, rods, waders and a free fly-casting course.

   The six-year old, five-star lodge was created for anglers by anglers. Six spacious guest rooms each with private bath, river and mountain views. Lodge boasts open bar, fly-tying area, spa with sauna, scotch shower and Jacuzzi. Enjoy international and Patagonian meals with fine Argentinean wines.
