Fishing
Rivers
From the three different lodges that make up the Martin Pescador program you can wade and float some of the region's best rivers. During the summer months and early fall anglers can throw dry flies to pods of rainbows or throw big attractor dries to entice large browns. Some of the rivers fished include the Yelcho, Futaleaufu, Palena, Rosselot, Figueroa and Pico.
Lakes and Lagunas
This region of Chile offers some of the world's best trophy trout fishing in incredibly productive lakes. Watching double digit monster trout launch out of the water to intercept dragonflies is not uncommon when fishing the reed beds on these stillwaters. Whether sight casting to huge fish patrolling weed beds or swing for the fences with big streamers these spectacular stillwaters are a great way to add variety to floating and wading the many rivers in the region.
Guides
Your guides at Martin Pescador are highly experienced. The progam utilizes both American and local Chilean guides that speak excellent English.
