Fly Fishing
Limay River operation is located
in a small mountain Village called La Angostura just
a few miles distant from the famous BARILOCHE city. The crew is that
type of experienced, accredited and profesional bilingual guides that
provide all the necessary equipment, services and quality you need for
a fishing trip. Plus, they are those who grew next to the river and
can call it home waters.
The main destination is Limay River, that is described as one of the
best sport fishing places in Patagonia. This river is fished floating
on raft boats or drift boats and wading the best pools, everything happens
in a patagonian steppe landscape. Very good option for experienced fishermen
as much for beginners.
For FFTR the Limay has two fantastic moments to fish, nevertheless all
the season is prime fishing. The river rise from the enormous Nahuel
Huapi lake, that give the opportunity for the fish to make the RUN to
their spawning season. The first, from the Rainbow trout ends in October
but in the month of November to December, you can catch the ones that
are still in the river waiting for the returning to the Nahuel Huapi
Lake. The second, at the end of the season is the brown trout lake RUN,
from march to april they start entering the river for the spawning completely
silver, from the deep waters of the nahuel lake. In both moments you
can expect the best RUN fishing experience.
You can schedule full day floating trips, expeditions of several days
with camping nights, “all Inclusive” fishing packages and Lodges.
Like is characteristic in Patagonia, there are many other options for
fishing just a few miles around Limay area, you can set special programs
based on quantity of fishermen, level of experience and availability
of time. Just to name a few, if someone talked about them: Correntoso,
Manso, Traful, Pichi Leufu, Filo Hua Hum, Collon Cura, Alumine, and
Caleufu.
Concerning fishing in lakes the operation located on the coast of the
Nahuel Huapi Lake within the legendary seven lakes road.The options
are many but we emphasized the Espejo Lake and the Correntoso Lake because
of its proximity to “La Angostura Village” and their quality as fishing
places. Calm bays and extensive coastal weeds are propitious for fishing
from power boats across a typical Andean forest atmosphere. There you
can “hunt” trouts. The best fishing is sight fishing. Besides, lakes
like Traful, Espejo Chico, Fonck and Filo Hua Hum are remarkable destinies
because of the beauty of their surroundings and the experience of knowing
the Nahuel Huapi National Park.
This is brief detail of the alternatives that we can propose to you
as a fly fishing program, combining styles and destinies to assure an
unforgetable experience.
Lunches at the bank of the rivers deserves a special mention. Typical
food, good wine and local beer, all of that very well served in comfortable
armchairs and camping tables. What else do you need? Just catch
