Limay River

Best river in north patagononia for   trophy brown trouts fishing.

It is fed by Nahuel Huapi Lake, and in it, many rivers such as Traful and Collon Cura, ease their waters. Limay River is a water course of arid characteristics and rocky formations, purely of steppe, with amazing loglines, huge pools and great water volume, which make it a challenge for fly fishing.

We divide it into 3 stretches: the first extends from “La Boca” of Limay River to Fortin Chacabuco Stay- Rincón Chico sector. The second goes from Fortin Chacabuco Stay – Rincón Chico sector to La lonja Stay Pine grove. The third and last goes from Balsa Maroma to Confluencia Traful. We find in this river, big populations of Rainbow trout, and excellent size of Brown trout. It is an ideal river to be floated on catarafts. Limay River has provided Brown trout of around 1kg and Rainbows of up to 8kgs. Given to this and the majesty of the place, we can assure that Limay River is one of the best trout-fishing rivers in the world.
