February, the shortest month!!!

February 27th, 2009

As you all know, February is our shortest month and also the warmest… normally it affects the fishing big time.

This season on some of the rivers (Carrileufu) we fish, they presented an invasion of grass hoppers and also a black worm that fed on the old lupines flowers these plants grow on the banks right on the edges and fish where waiting for them right below them in case they fell in the river… So we used all sorts of attractors and terrestrials to fool those hungry trout. Some of the results you can see at the picture above!

We also went to Chile a few times to fish various rivers with awesome results, guests are loving the road trips. Come and join us in our next road trip in search of the pristine waters!!!

January 2009, a great start!!!

 A good catch on the Carrileufu!

 

January 2009,

 

Never a better start than with a float trip on the Chubut! The river was right at prime condition, water level and temperature. Our catches, over 50 landed fish per boat every day, some of the fish reached well over 20 inches! Trip to remember…

The Carrileufu, using hoppers and terrestrials was just stunning, The Rivadavia turned from dries on the  foam lines from the boat, to nymphs and a lot of wading. Some of the catches were just spectacular, we also started with our road trips into Chile, fished several spots including the Palena, and Yelcho river and Lake, all were exceptional and fulfilled all of our expectations.

Summing up, a great start of 2009
