Patagonia is a vast, wild region spanning the 40th and 55th parallels south. It comprises both Chile and Argentina, and at over 400,000 square miles, it is more than twice the size of California.
While its signature feature is the incredibly dramatic spine of the Andes Mountains, Patagonia is comprised of an unparalleled variety of landscapes, including the arid high desert, glaciated granite spires, lush semi-tropical rain forests, and virtually every bioregion in between.
The Rio Pico region of Chubut province, Argentina, is probably the most diverse region of all Patagonia and is known, somewhat privately amongst the area guides and outfitters, as the best “big trout” country in all of Patagonia.
This is probably the most diverse region of Patagonia: you can catch many species. Brook trout, rainbow trout, brown trout and Chinook (King) salmon are willing to chase your flies.
From the Andes to the Pampas, the landscape is so diverse that within a day’s range, one can find totally separate ecosystems. Comprised of an immense network of interconnected gin-clear creeks and lakes, hidden among stunning scenery, these waters are far off the beaten path, flowing west to the Pacific as they cut their way back through the Andes. One can fish for a variety of species including Brook, Rainbow, Brown Trout—and Chinook (King) Salmon are sometimes willing to chase your flies.
No other destination offers the beauty, variety, or productivity of the Rio Pico.
