The Fishing

The area between Junín de los Andes and Alumine in Northern Patagonia is the most prolific dry fly fishing region in the world. The variety and abundance of fishable water would allow you to fish a different location each day for more than 100 days. Dry fly fishing is available throughout the entire season, November through May.

During your stay at Casa de Campo Lodge you will experience 2 day float that incorporate overnight camping at our Deluxe Riverside Camp. This option is available on several of the larger rivers that we float.

Alumine River

The Alumine is one of the longest rivers in northern Patagonia. This freestone river drains Lake Alumine and continues until its junction with the Catan-Lil- River where it becomes the Collon Cura.

Malalco Spring Creek

Born in the heart of Lanin National Park as a single spring, it gets bigger collecting more water for other springs and filtrations of wetlands, until it becomes into the finest spring creeks of the area. 

Chimehuin River

The Chimehuin begins at the mouth of Huechulafquen Lake, near the base of the Lanin Volcano. It runs for 30 miles until the junction with the Collon Cura River.

Quilca River

Is the largest freestone we walk and wade in the area, very similar to the famous Malleo river. It starts as the natural outflow of Lake Quillen deep in the Lanin National Park in the core of the Andes mountains.

Rucachoroi Creek

It’s a freestone water that starts as the natural drain of a small lake also called Rucachoroi – which means “house of parrots” to the Mapuche culture. The upper stretch runs through a millinery wood of Araucarias (Monkey Puzzle Tree), it features medium sized boulders producing a good number of riffles, short deep pools and some great pocket water.

Lake Quillen

Quillen lake can produce one of the finests dry fly fishing experiences in the area. Originated by an extinct glacial, it stays clear and cold through the entire year. Along 13 miles it offers stunning views to the north face of Lanin Volcano (12,388 ft) Is the largest and less fished lake in this area and surrounded by a cold rainforest that covers the slopes of the mountains.

Caleufu River

The Caleufu is possibly one of the most beautiful rivers in northern Patagonia. This river’s 40-mile flow starts at the junction of the Meliquina and Filo Hua-Hum Rivers and ends at the Piedra del Aquila Reservoir
