Rivadavia River, Argentina |
|
Los Alerces National Park... Is one of Argentina's real gems when it comes to fly fishing. It's less than an hour from Esquel in Central Patagonia and has at least a dozen good rivers that hold good populations of wild rainbow and brown trout. Guides Martin O'Farrell and Caleb Gates... Of O'Farrell Safaris and Trevelin Lodge float David and Gwenn Perkins down the Rivadavia river, 7 miles of classic trout water that flows between Lago Rivadavia and Lago Verde, with water crystal clear, running cold and deep. The remarkable thing about the trout in Argentina, is that they are extremely strong fighters that are descendants from the McCloud river steelhead, transplanted to Argentina around the turn of the century by sailing ship. The master of spinning deer hair... Chris Helm, ties an "Elk Hair Caddis" from the Hooked On Fly Tying video Hair Trout Flies.
