    Default Argentina

    A friend and I have been invited on a fly fishing trip to Argentina. Have any of you had the opportunity to fly fish there ? I am open to any suggestions to what we should bring. Clothing flies etc. Thanks

    I have been a few times to the Patagonia side of Southern Chile.
    Where are you going and when?
    I have always gone in January when the weather is "usually" pretty good. It can still get cold some times even then.
    Probably want at least a 6 weight although it all depends on where you go.

    Dave, it seems that you will be guided. Is that correct?

    Sounds like you're well-armed, unless you just want a 5 wt.
