Argentina

Argentina is one of the most exciting trout fishing destinations in the world!

The larger rivers will remind you of the Madison, Gallatin, or Yellowstone rivers. The smaller ones will bring back memories of smaller creeks and headwaters.

Larger fish in river inlets and lake outlets have caused many a jaded angler to succumb to "boca fever."

What sets Argentina apart is its colorful and exciting culture. Gauchos, the sound of Spanish, beef asados and dark, strong coffee will enrich anyone's fishing experience.

Accommodations range from good to outstanding, and you can choose your own level of comfort and quality.

Special Programs

Mel, always exploring new fishing experiences, has discovered unknown rivers which are now available to the American anglers, i.e. in Northern Argentina (September and October) for freshwater dorado. The fierce dorado eats piranhas and is the greatest freshwater fighter on earth. It reaches 20 pounds and lives in small, clear trout stream-like waters.
