An enormous country of unique and diverse landscapes famed for its great food, wine and soccer – over the past 30 years Argentina has become the go-to fly fishing destination for anglers looking to land some serious trophy fish.
Whilst the sub-tropical jungles in the north offer the opportunity to chase the beautiful, yet aggressive and acrobatic Golden Dorado, it’s the incredible Sea Trout fishing in Tierra del Fuego and southern Patagonia which has really made Argentina such a special place for anglers from all over the world. On the wide winding stretches of the Río Grande fish regularly exceed 20lbs, with 30lbs+ a genuine possibility with every cast.
The second of the De Las Carreras family lodges to open on the Río Grande after Kau Tapen, Villa Maria is located on the middle river and offers anglers first crack at newly arrived monster sea trout on the lower Río Grande. For those who enjoy the challenges and rewards of two-handed rods, this is a dream destination.
The first fishing lodge built on the magnificent Río Grande, the legendary Kau Tapen Lodge of Tierra del Fuego simply embodies the fly fishing experience. Boasting over 35 years of epic battles and fantastic memories, anglers come from all over the world for the opportunity to catch the sea trout of a lifetime.
Located in the Northeast Corrientes Province, in the middle of the Ibera marshlands, this superb lodge sits right on the edge of a channel providing direct access to the marsh system of crystal-clear creeks, deep flowing rivers, and shallow lakes. Your target? The legendary Golden Dorado.
