Central Patagonia

Shared Waters We Fish

Thirteen named rivers, lakes, and spring creeks make up the Home Waters region our Caridad, Rivadavia, and Futaleufu lodges draw from. No single lodge has exclusive access, and several waters are fished by more than one of our lodges. Ask your lodge which waters are on the day's plan.

Tecka

Small Stream · Named for Caridad's original site

A small wade-fishing stream carrying the same name Caridad was long known by ("The Lodge @ Tecka"). Rainbow and brown trout.

Corcovado

River · Closer to Caridad

Runs over sixty miles before crossing into Chile, where it becomes the legendary Palena. Lower stretches near Corcovado town, in the same corridor as Tecka. Mammoth brown trout, vibrant rainbows.

Nant Y Fall

Small Spring-Fed Stream · Central Patagonia region

A petite, lake-fed stream with the elegant demeanor of a spring creek: a private angling haven with the Andes on the horizon. Rainbows to 18+ inches.

Cholila Lake

Lake · Named for Rivadavia's original site

Shares its name with Rivadavia's former public name ("The Lodge @ Cholila"). Shore, wade, and boat fishing. Multiple trout species.

Carrileufu River

River · Closer to Rivadavia: also fished by Carrileufu

Flows from Lago Cholila through the historic Cholila Valley (once Butch Cassidy's territory) into Lago Rivadavia, becoming the source of the Rivadavia River. Described by the source lodge as among the clearest water they fish. Best floated November–January. Also fished by Carrileufu Lodge, the separate lodge on the same lake: same word, different thing. Early-season landlocked Atlantic salmon, hard-fighting browns and rainbows.

Rivadavia River

River · Central Patagonia: also fished by Trevelin

Flows from Lago Rivadavia to Lago Verde. Not to be confused with Rivadavia Lodge: same word, different thing. Rainbow, brown, and brook trout, landlocked salmon (18+ inch average).

Rio Grande

River · Los Alerces area: fished by both Futaleufu and Trevelin

Originates at Lago Futalaufquen in Parque Nacional Los Alerces. Trout run large here. Trout averaging 16–20 inches.

Percy

River · Los Alerces area, near Futaleufu

Weaves from the heart of Los Alerces National Park and Esquel, joining the Rio Corintos on its course to the Rio Grande.

Corintos

River · Los Alerces area: fished by both Futaleufu and Trevelin

Meanders roughly 30 miles before merging with the Rio Grande, alternating between freestone and spring-creek character. Trout to 18 inches.

Arrayanes

River · Los Alerces area: fished by both Futaleufu and Trevelin

Connects Lago Verde and Lago Futalaufquen along a four-mile run, named for the orange-barked arrayán trees on its banks. Best in early season (November–January). Rainbow and brown trout.

Frey

River · Los Alerces area, near Futaleufu

The largest river in Parque Nacional Los Alerces: remote and float-only, reached by traversing two lakes. Untouched by the usual fishing pressure.

Verde and Kruger Lakes

Small Lakes · Los Alerces area: fished by both Futaleufu and Trevelin

Hidden gems in the Los Alerces lake system, backed by ten-thousand-foot peaks: sizable fish eager to rise to large dry flies.

Futalaufquen Lake

Lake · Los Alerces area: fished by both Futaleufu and Trevelin

The lake at the heart of Parque Nacional Los Alerces, fed by the Rio Arrayanes and the source of the Rio Grande. Boat or shore fishing. Rainbow and brown trout.

Proximity notes above are relative, not exact drive times: actual distance depends on river conditions and access points. Ask your lodge for specifics.
