Last week I had my good friend and incredible photographer, Isaias Miciu, visit me from Argentina. I wanted to show him the best of what the Pacific NW has to offer, even though December certainly isn’t the best time of year to pursue outdoor activities in this neck of the woods. Luckily Mother Nature was kind to us with the weather, and we were able to combine steelhead fishing, surfing and skiing in a single trip. Isa really captured the essence of the NW outdoor lifestyle. Not a bad way to bring in the New Year! For more of his stuff, see: http://isaiasmiciu.com

Almost five weeks passed after the beginning of the season and besides the volcano eruption fishing conditions are great, lakes and rivers remain with high and clear water. It seems that rainbows are already returned from the spawning and getting stronger and silver again. On the other hand, migratory brown are fat, silver and already entering into Limay river . We have been going to the Limay quite often, most of the days have been windy making fishing a bit difficult but that has not been an excuse for not catching fish.
We haven´t been in the Rio Manso system yet ( Manso River, Fonk, hess and Mascardi Lakes), but we have heard it´s giving great rewards, as usual by this time of the season.
If you are interested to fish the Limay river with us, we use Bariloche city as a base, the airport is being remodeled that is why flights from BA are only available to Neuquen or Esquel city, both around 300 to 400 km away, the rest of the trip has to be by ground (airlines include ground transfer to Bariloche which takes around 3 to 4 hours). Let us know at Info@farawayflyfishing.com and we can organize it together.
Check out the latest catches, hope you like them…

We have been recently fishing the Limay river starting on Limay river mouth floating down to Villa Llanquin area and we had great success all the way. We have great offers for this season on daily trips or packages in the Lake district area. Please contact us if you have any questions! Enjoy the pics!

Flash News from the our good friend Pancho, owner of Carrileufu Valley Lodge, regarding the volcano:
For all interested fly fishers I would like to comment about the most recent volcanic eruption in Chile and what it may mean to you. First, the fishing habitat, not the fish, is the only concern as biologists have already confirmed that in certain waters both ash and pumice have settled on the bottom. This effect applies mostly to areas north of Bariloche. Next, the Bariloche airport is still down and undergoing some major modifications, and is currently scheduled to reopen on December 20, 2011. In the meantime, air traffic has been shifted to Esquel. I believe that four flights a week are currently scheduled. It is suggested that you confirm these flight plans prior to your immediate travel departure. We will feature any important changes in future email. Our season opens in just two weeks and I will look forward to sharing timely reports with you
Tight Lines,

It’s encouraging to see more examples of fat, healthy trout in the aftermath if the volcanic ash fall in the Limay River. It appears as if the fish are no worse for wear. Thanks to Rodrigo Amadeo

Fishing season started the first of November and we decided to go for one of the most interesting sport fish in Patagonia, Landlocked Atlantic Salmon.
The Volcanic eruption affected the area where we fish for them, there´s about 1 inch of very thin ash all over the ground, anyhow, we managed to get to the river and Fish without mayor issues. The water color was almost normal and the level extremely high, making casting very difficult. After some minutes of getting into the water we were already hooking fish and it happened consistently through all the afternoon. Rainbow trouts were all over the place, most of them still spawning, it seems that everything is bit delayed this year. Luckily we caught what we went for, we had a quiet good number of Landlocked Atlantics in the end of the line, they were really fresh, it seems they just got in from the Lake.

Hey All,
I just sent a letter to the Chilean Embassy in support of the thousands of Chileans who have been protesting for weeks, calling on their government to cancel the destructive and unnecessary HidroAysén dams in Patagonia.
Please join me and take action now: http://tinyurl.com/DemocracyForChile
Thanks!
p.s. Thanks to George Arbaugh for the heads up on this
