No.1 Outfitter in Argentina
Patagonia River Guides
Experience the best fly fishing in Argentina with Patagonia River Guides (PRG). Guests of PRG have the opportunity to enjoy the most comprehensive fly fishing programs from over ten diverse lodging choices across the three most productive regions of Patagonia, Argentina – Esquel, Rio Pico and San Martin de los Andes. Every trip is customized according to the anglers’ needs and desires, and trips as short as three days or as long as three weeks are easily executed. The PRG experience is a unique blend of inspiring waters, varied fishing, beautiful scenery, interesting culture, lasting friendships and unrivaled service, complemented by gourmet and regional cuisine, delicious wines and first-class accommodations. There are few places in the world where you can enjoy the diversity and quality of fishing offered in Patagonia, but careful planning and execution are critical to getting the most out of your fly fishing trip. At PRG, our philosophy to fishing is straightforward: fish the best rivers, at the best times, with the best guides. On any given day, PRG’s guests could find themselves wading small freestone streams or spring creeks, floating bigger rivers from comfortable rafts or drift boats, stalking fish and sight fishing in gin-clear water or even spending a day in search of fish over ten pounds on our area still waters. Fish size and numbers depend on the type of water and the angler’s skill level, but we are confident that the quality, diversity and unparalleled beauty of our fisheries will not disappoint. Since we have so many options, extended stays are recommended in order to see and experience as much as possible in one, two or all three of our distinct regions.

Our Rivers & Lakes
One of the most unique aspects of Patagonia Argentina are its stunning landscapes and geographical diversities.
At Patagonia River Guides, we focus on fishing three very productive and diverse regions: Trevelin & Esquel (access to Los Alerces National Park), Rio Pico, and San Martin de los Andes. Each region we fish showcases a different and beautiful side of Argentina, but one thing they all have in common is the world-class trout fishing.

PRG guides are without a doubt the most professional, experienced fly fishing guides in Patagonia. Over half of our guides have been with us since the beginning and have grown with us over the years. All PRG guides are fluent in English and are excellent teachers. No matter what skill level angler, they can get you on the water catching fish in no time. They are the backbone of this fishing program and business and we can’t be more proud to have them!
Best Times
When to Come?
We always tell guests that there is no “best time” to visit us in Argentina. Our programs are so diverse that we are able to adapt throughout the season and always provide the best experience imaginable. If you would like to experience our Cast & Blast Program, you do need to look at Fall dates from March through May. If you are a wine lover, you might want to consider joining us in the Fall as well for our annual harvest (typically in April).
