Fly fishing Argentina

Challhuaquen Lodge offers a unique and exclusive ALL INCLUSIVE service, both as a hotel and a fly fishing lodge in Argentina. Our main goal is to give the maximum comfort in a wonderful place where you’ll be able to enjoy fly fishing Argentina.

Challhuaquen invites you to discover one of the world’s most fascinating fly fishing Argentina areas, based on a set of programs exclusively design for our anglers.

Our fly fishing Argentina (Rods) is in rivers and streams, wading from the coast and sometimes on floating trips and float-tubing. One pair of fly weight chest waders and one pair of neoprene chest waders is recommended. The new waders “non-condensation” is the best for walking. The comfort of your wading shoes is very important also.

Fishing vest, rain jacket, wide-brimmed fly fishing hat are also recommended. Insect repellent is sometimes needed, as there are few mosquitoes or biting insects in Patagonia Argentina. Suntan lotion and lip balm are usually useful as well. Strike indicators for nymph fishing, camera, and films do not need explanation.

A good combination of rods for fly fishing Argentina is:

- 8-91/2’ 4/5 weight for dry flies and nymphs.
- 9-91/2’ 6/7 weight for Boca or streamer fishing.
- 8-9’ 3-4 weight for spring creeks and small flies.

For this, we’ve combined a 5 star lodge (the best one in the area Esquel-Trevelin) with a team of professional fly fishing guides highly qualified and expert on rivers and lakes. Our programs are based on the Futaulfú river, which we consider to be the best fishing spot in the area (“the 100 rivers River”).

However, our intention is to offer the angler a variety of places to enjoy, without sacrificing the comfort the lodge provides. Thus, you’ll be able to float, wade, and use an infinite number of fishing techniques (dry, dry-dropper, streamers, and nymphs) in rivers, spring creeks, lakes and lagoons around the area.

We offer packages that go from 4 nights on, but suggest a minimum of 7 nights to allow yourselves the opportunity to explore the area in depth.

Each package is designed to measure of each group, taking into account their tastes and preferences, their fishing experience, the conditions of the water and the time of the year; all of this guarantees beautiful stays for all of our friends who decide to visit us in fly fishing Argentina. www.challhuaquen.com
