Location
Sea Trout fly fishing in Argentina takes place on the Irigoyen River. The Irigoyen River is unique in that it is a small river on the East coast of the island of Tierra del Fuego that empties right into the sea where big Sea Trout come in fresh from the ocean. Another unique feature is that the river flows through a valley, which is bordered by ancient forests. The river also runs on the leeward side of the mountains, which all means it is more protected from the harsh Argentinian winds.
