Chartered Flights Rainbow Trout Fishing Trips in Argentina

Fish the World’s Largest Rainbow Trout Fishery at a Remote, Fly-in Fishing Lodge in Patagonia

Jurassic Lake Lodge is located at the Strobel Lake and Barrancoso River, this system is nothing short of a biological anomaly and must be the most prolific trophy rainbow fishery on the planet. The lake itself is a large desert sink lake measuring approximately 20 by 15 km. It is located at approximately 3,000 ft. elevation in the wide-open desolate expanse of the Patagonian Steppe.

Fly-in Fly Fishing on the Crystal Clear Barrancoso River in Argentina for Trophy Trout 

In Strobel Lake, the rainbow trout average over 10 pounds with countless fish in the mid-teens and the 20 + pound class. These fish are extremely stout and most are incredibly strong and acrobatic. We have the good fortune of being located at the mouth of Jurassic Lake’s only significant tributary. With no outlet, this is far and away the best location on the lake with anglers stacking up big numbers of big fish virtually every day of the season.

The Barrancoso is the World’s Best Mountain River for Rainbow Trout 

This is the best fly-in fly fishing for Rainbow Trout in the Mountains of Patagonia

Last season we built at new lodge with fly-in access on charter flights from the Argentine coast. The new lodge has 10 comfortable single/double occupancy rooms with private baths and shower. The main house has a spacious living room facing the Lake and the mouth of the Barrancoso river. There is electricity around the clock, satellite TV, satellite phone, and unlimited wireless internet access.

Our new airstrip is located at just 15 min drive from the Lodge. Guests on full-week (Saturday-Saturday) packages can land in the coastal city of Comodoro Rivadavi and fly into the lodge in a 19 passenger Twin Otter. This one hour flight replaces the previous 7-8 hour drive to Jurassic Lake Lodge/

The season runs from November to April. Peak fishing is November to mid-January. During this time fish concentrate in large numbers in, and around the mouth of, the Barrancoso river allowing anglers to rack up some seriously impressive numbers of fish.  If sheer pounds of fish is not exactly your thing, fish in early March through April for the best quality fish. For some reason the late “run” of fish all tend to be in pristine condition – ultra-bright, hard bodied, and turbocharged!
