GIANT RAINBOWS IN LAKE STROBEL, ARGENTINA (aka JURASSIC  LAKE)

A group trip to the world’s greatest rainbow trout fishery 

We invite you to join us on a trip to one of our favorite South American destinations, the amazing Lake Strobel. Rainbow trout in the five to ten pound range are just average fish here while on every cast you have real a chance of catching a 20 pound+ monster. Lake Strobel Lodge and Estancia Laguna Verde together offer access to more coastline on the lake (14 km) and to the only river which feeds it, the Barrancoso River (10 km), then any other operation. During the stay we will also have access to another 14 lagoons. You will be accompanied & assisted by your bilingual host from the moment we meet up in Buenos Aires until our return to the city.

THE FISHING
Rainbow trout in the five to ten pound range are just average fish here while on every cast you have real a chance of catching a 20 pound+ monster. In fact, the 20+ Lb Club has been growing quickly. Maybe soon we will have to inaugurate the 30+ lb Club! Generally most of the fishing on the lake is with streamers and nymphs. However, at times when the wind dies down, sight fishing with large foam flies such as the Chernobyl Ant can be very effective. Fishing is done from the shore or wading in certain areas. It isn’t necessary to fish far from the shore to have good results. During our week we will also fish the Barrancoso River. Dry fly or nymph fishing in the lower river can be amazing at times when large trout run up river for the spawn.  To get around the different areas of the lake, we will have 4×4 vehicles and quads. 

THE LODGE
There are a couple of camps that operate on the lake, but ours is the only one that runs a genuine lodge, the Laguna Verde Lodge. This is an oasis of comfort in a tough inhospitable environment. The structure is simple and rustic, but offers comforts found nowhere else within many miles in any direction: electricity and water 24 hours a day, bedrooms with good full size beds and on suite bathrooms, a cozy dining and lounge area with comfortable sofas for relaxing, watching the television, connecting to the Internet, or just enjoying a cocktail before dinner. Meals are composed of a variety of delicious national and international dishes acompanied by excellent Argentinian wines. These are comforts that are appreciated after a hard day of fishing.
