March!

March 26th, 2008
 

March started off with cooler temperatures but right after the first week we went back to the warm weather again, wet wading has been incredible though the fishing tough. Very busy during the majority of the month, very few people at the rivers and the water looking gorgeous, fishing is pretty technical and a few of the large browns are starting to show up in the “Rivadavia” river. So now the name of the game is not quantity but quality! Skillful anglers have more chances at this time in the season, and good trophy fish are available to a good drift of a nymph. Streamers are also becoming a good option.

 

February!

March 26th, 2008
 

Traditionally a tough month for fishing, due to the hot temperatures that affect the water and therefore the fish become quite stationary in the depths and dark areas. This year begun quite well and little by little the fishing got tougher and tougher, we went into a heavy drought that affected the fields and forests, some sparse fires took place on several areas simultaneously. On the other hand because of the lack of rain, the water level in the water courses was low and not fast. Wading was easy and fish got stacked up in the pools. Nymph fishing and dry fly fishing was the way to go. We moved around quite a bit and concentrated our fishing in the spring creek waters, which maintained the normal temperatures and the fish were quite active.

We were honored with the visit of Jack and Barbara Nicklaus and friends, we also had our great friends form the south of the United States so our month of February was total full and fun!
