Due to a recent 2 angler postponement on a trip that has been booked for over a year, I have 2 open spots for anglers on a spectacular angling pursuit!
This is a host trip, one of 3 weeks that I do every season to Patagonia. This one in particular is one of my favorites, and is the best option for the angler on a budget.
Located in Northern Patagonia near the border with Chile, Orvis Endorsed Rio Manso Lodge offers a host of activities led by exceptional fly fishing, elegant yet comfortable lodging, and extraordinary cuisine. Nestled in Nahuel Huapi National Park in the midst of virgin waters and lush forests, their caring staff will make your Patagonian experience a very special one.
If you are looking for the best fly fishing in Argentina you've come this is one of them. At Rio Manso Lodge, you will fish a wide variety of waters from small streams and large rivers to intimate spring creeks and deep productive lakes where monster browns, hefty rainbows and trophy brook trout swim.
This week April 15-22 is situated at the very end of the season, for one specific reason, giant lake run Brown Trout! We will be focusing on the river systems and lake outlets in search of ten+ pound class pre spawn Brown Trout with streamers and large dries……
There is also an opportunity to venture down to Rio Manso Lodge’s “Encampmento” (outcamp) for several days during your stay. Here you will find 20 private miles of the Rio Frio as well as three private lakes. The river will not only provide great number fishing for trout, but also the opportunity at sea-run browns, many of which can make it to the 20 lb. plus mark. The 3 lakes provide oppurtunities at endless large fish, with the strong possibility at hook ups on Rainbows in the 30” plus range. (see pic below of the day’s best catch, 36,” on one of the lakes during last years trip)
I will be accompanying the group on this trip to help with the group, fish with the group, and to extend my years of knowledge on the area……

This is the biggest Fly Fishing Film Tour event in Colorado! All proceeds go to Project Healing Waters, one of the best programs in the country for our veterans.
Now in its forth year, this coast-to-coast event tour is visiting more than 95 cities in the United States throughout 2012. Tour stops include theaters in Portland, Denver, Seattle, Ann Arbor, Atlanta, Nashville, and Missoula, to name a few. This 90-minute festival of short films includes segments from the sport's best filmmakers shot in foreign destinations like Mexico, Canada, Belize as well as domestic waters from Montana and Wisconsin to southern Louisiana and the Florida Keys. Hosted by a live emcee and featuring prize giveaways, this event is a celebration for all.
Project Healing Waters is a nonprofit organization that supports wounded warriors from local active and reserve military installations and the local Colorado Springs Veterans Clinic. They have been helping wounded warriors since 2007, providing fly fishing education, trips, and equipment at no cost to the participants. Project Healing Waters is unique in that volunteers teach classes on an on-going, long term basis. It’s much more than a one day fishing trip. For many participants, particularly disabled veterans, the socialization and camaraderie of the classes are just as important as the fishing outings.
Stay tuned, as I will reveal our guided trip auctions (6) in our next newsletter........
