Got some late availability with limited rods for the following 2 destinations:
1. Rio Grande, Kau-Tapen, Argentina. 7-14th March. $4500 (USD)!
2. Rio Grande, Chile, 15-22nd February. $4000 (USD)!
1.
Rio Grande; Argentinean side – Kau-Tapen lodge.
This is the finest lodge on the Rio Grande, without question. It is ideally situated on the lower river, and its reputation says it all. The week in question is the 7-14th March (prime week!), with availability limited to 5 rods only. The usual cost for the week is around $8000 (USD), but I am able to offer it for just $4500 (USD), which includes transfers. This is all inclusive at the lodge, fully guided etc. It does not include flights (roughly £750 return including internal flights), or tips. This deal has materialised due to a cancellation, hence the hugely discounted price. First come first serve on this one.
2.
Rio Grande; Chilean side.
I have booked the week 15-22nd February at the lodge, with a max group size of 6 people. This is mixed fishing, and includes; Rio Grande; the fishing is in the middle reaches of the Grande; equivalent of Llandeilo on the Towy or Llandysul on the Teifi.The river is very easy for the fish to navigate, and you will get extremely fresh fish on the beats. We have over 20 miles of fishing at our disposal! Further to that, we have numerous lakes that we can fish, which are a must see. These lakes contain, brown, sea, rainbow, and brook trout (char) – there’s another river that we fish which drains out of one of the lakes, where the fishing is nothing short of fantastic! The lodge is very relaxed, and every day can be drawn up differently and to your requirements i.e. there is no set routine for the week, you have room to dictate. Night fishing is also available, since it is in Chile, and can be extremely effective. A great mixed-bag package, where the variety creates a great all-round experience.
Cost for the week directly through the lodge, and as I have advertised in previous years is $4500 (USD). However, since the dollar is so strong at the moment, I am willing to lose out to encourage take-up of the package and make sure that I get a group returning there in 2009. As such, for the 15-22nd February 2009 week, it will cost $4000 (USD). This is all inclusive at the lodge, fully guided etc. It does not include flights (roughly £750 return including internal flights), tips, transfer to/from Rio Grande ($150) (USD).
Here are some photos from this trip for the 2007 and the 2008 season:
