Our waters offer a complete variety of different types of fishing, from big dry flies and weighted streamers to tiny emergers, nymphs and spinners.

We fish both floating and sinking lines, dry and wet flies at different times of the season and throughout the day. When fishing the Yelcho and Futaleufu river, much of your fishing will be with streamers and sinking lines.

Hatches on much of the river are sporadic and the biggest fish are best drawn out with streamer patterns. There are several sections where nymphs are especially effective, and a tiny spring creek where sight casting to cruising fish can be a delightful change of pace.
