Fishing

Text: Pablo Etchevers · Photos: Eduardo Epifanio

Fishing is an activity you can do in almost all the waters in the district, with eleven lakes, many of which offer good catching possibilities.

It is strictly regulated in the area of the National Park and the three Reserve areas: lake Ñorquinco, Ruca Choroi and Quillèn.

You can practise different fishing styles. We highly recommend fly fishing many timed determined in the Reglamento de Pesca Continental Patagònica, mainly in Lake Pulmarì and lake Quillèn. You can angle from the banks or from fishing rafts, for what river Aluminé is specially apt.

The diversity and quality of these environments, where highly qualified species such as Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, and Brook Trout live, guaranteefull activity journeys within an environment of beauty and tranquility. Other modes permitted are trolling and spinning, for which you must get an additional permit for preferential areas.
