Argentina is located in South America and is a must-visit fishing destination for hardcore anglers. Here, you'll find Jurassic-size rainbows and world-record golden dorado. Argentina’s seasons are the reverse of the Northern Hemisphere. Spring weather begins in September. The warmest summer months are January, February, and March. April is considered early fall. All international flights to Argentina arrive at Ezeiza International Airport in Buenos Aires.
Carry-On Restrictions: For domestic flights in Argentina or international flights leaving Argentina you will need to pack all rods, reels, lures, line and flies in your luggage. Most often you are not allowed to carry on these items, so plan ahead.
