Dorado - Northern Argentina |

Dorado Fly Fishing Lodge: Dorado are an aggressive hard fighting fish found in the waters of northern Argentina. If you like peacock bass you will love the Dorado, with more fight, more jumps and gusto per pound than any warm water fish I have seen. They lie some where between a bluefish and a barracuda but in fresh water! |
Tierra Del Fuego |

Tierra del Fuego's Kautapen Lodge has more history than any other lodge in Tierra del Fuego. No where else will you find this unique blend of luxury, tradition and fishing quality. Twenty years of catering to fly fishing enthusiasts gives the lodge its distinguished heritage and the reputation as the premier destination in Tierra del Fuego. |

Toonken is one of the premier lodges for sea run brown trout. Established in 1997, Toonken enjoys some of the most productive pools on the upper river. The newly designed lodge has been re-located on a high bluff overlooking the river. On the upper section which holds the most fish you will find the river a reasonable size that belies the huge fish holding in the pools. |

Villa Maria Lodge rests on the historic grounds of the José Mendendez Estancia property with access to both banks of the river. Big rods and big pools are the norm. A lot of anglers tell us they love Villa Maria because it is "tough", but the lodge doesn't sacrifice creature comforts to focus on big-fish fishing. Tough maybe but not too tough. |

Opened in 1995, Bella Vista Lodge is the most exclusive lodge on the Rio Gallegos, offering exciting fishing for giant sea-run trout as well as some of the finest dry fly brown trout fishing, on an intimate spring creek.
A much bigger system than its sister river the Rio Grande, the Gallegos and its pools are far more varied in their character. Slow oily looking holding pools are interspersed with fast riffles and boulder strewn runs, and the gravel bottom makes wading very easy.
The Estancia owns nearly 50 kms of double bank private access fishing which is limited to a maximum of ten rods per week. |
