Our operation is located in the south end of the Patagonian Andes – right on Ultima Esperanza’s opening to the Pacific Ocean. From here we have access to flat and typical Patagonian meandering Spring creeks and medium-size grasshopper type of water. Some of them are no more than 4 feet wide, and it’s possible to find any size of fish there. Mountain rivers are also in the menu. They are very interesting for those that like to hike and get to see water that not many people have fished. We have also a number of mid-size or bigger rivers. We like to fish these when the browns start to swim up river and they get ready
for spawning season.
Lakes and lagoons are available, and they are fun to float on an inflatable cataraft (two anglers, one guide). We fish them from the boat casting to the shore or drop-offs in search for those big browns. In general terms our watershed has two classifications. Most of what we fish are resident brown trout. They are happy and hungry during the months of November through April. Then if you stop a minute and take a good look at the map, you’ll see our rivers are connected to lakes and the ocean. We have healthy and strong fish moving back and forth using the streams as their highway. The best time to find SEA RUN BROWNS* OR LAKE RUN BROWNS *starts the second week of February, but March and April are the best months. (*This type of fishing needs a particular conditions to make it happens, please contact Us direct and we lead you with the best recommendation)
In about a one hour’s drive from Remota Hotel we have access to more than 6 different spectacular SPRING CREEKS. These are all wading opportunities and we take all lunches and equipment with us to spend the full day in the area. Because these water options are so close together, we can move from one creek to another, so as to give you a touch of diversity on your trip.
We are very concerned about this type of water. Our SPRING CREEKS are some of the most unique trout waters in all of Patagonia.
If you have never fly fished a lake in Patagonia, our recommendation is YOU HAVE TO TRY AT LEAST ONCE TO KNOW WHAT IT IS. “You might get addicted to it.”
On our inflatable cataraft we can take 2 anglers at a time. We fish lakes and lagoons around the area. This is an experience. Fish in these waters can range from 3 to 10 pounds, so when you hook one, you know it is going to be a good fish. The technique we use in most in these cases is to float downstream. We select a bay or a section and we move along it, and angler cast to drop-offs, trees, shelters, foam lines, etc.
We have a couple of main rivers in the area that we select during your stay with us. They are typically 20 to 40 feet wide, mountain and spring water fed, with well-marked pools and riffles.
We definitely suggest fishing these rivers, as they are connected straight to the ocean and it can be a surprise on every trip.
We have resident brown trout and as the season goes on, especially starting in mid-February until mid-April we find SEA RUN BROWNS that are waiting for you.
