Guided Fly Fishing Trips Cater To All Skill Levels In Patagonia
Patagonia contains some of the most acclaimed groups of fly fishing rivers in the world. There is excellent fly fishing throughout the entire region, including the breathtaking areas around Torres del Paine National Park. Trophy sized trout and salmon are available, with brown and rainbow trout reaching up to 15 pounds. With an amazing abundance of rivers and lakes and a variety of fish, there is something for every kind of fly fisherman in Patagonia.
The lack of crowds and beautiful, unspoiled landscapes make fly fishing in Patagonia such an awesome experience. People liken it to the American West of over 100 years ago. There is so much to see and do in this wild place, with beautiful places to stay and gourmet food to eat. Trout season throughout most of northern Patagonia runs from November through May.
At Patagonia Wild Waters, we offer guided fishing trips to the pristine rivers and lakes of Patagonia, as well as full fishing vacations including lodging, food, and expert guides for some of the best trout fishing and scenery in the world. We safely navigate the waters, provide the best gear and tackle, casting and line management tips, and the top secret best spots!
While fly fishing infrastructure has developed over the past several years, you will likely do best with expert guides or experienced instructors to get you started and familiar with the multiple fly fishing options available. Whether you prefer wide, slow moving rivers, lakes, or small crystal streams, you can find it all in Patagonia.
Beginner fly fishermen will find their first trip to Patagonia rivers and lakes far less daunting, and more enjoyable, with an experienced guide helping you get started in the sport. A novice must contend with casting, line management, proper gear, fly choice and hatch recognition, among many other things. Experienced fly fishermen will come away with skills to improve their fishing, including reach cast, mending, twitching, dry fly drifts, streamers on the swing and fast retrieve, nymphing lines and drifts.
Experienced fly fishing guides can provide access to water that independent fly fishermen may not be able to fish by themselves. Guided fly fishing trips can provide anglers access to stunning scenery and amazing fishing all to themselves, with reputable lodging and gourmet food available with established guides. Years of experience allow fly fishing guides to know the water and hatches, resulting in the best fishing and trophy photographs.
Fly fishing guides know the best flies for the time of the season, water speed and depth, hatches, and the best spots for trout fishing. Their experience provides multiple tips, enabling fly fishermen to land many more trout than they would fishing alone. Expert advice on water reading, casting, line management and techniques provide success for beginners and experienced anglers alike. Typically, the optimal experience in new and wild areas is to hire an experienced local guide with knowledge of local waters and hot spots to ensure the best fly fishing possible.
