Fly Fishing - Chile, Del Zorro

Fly Fishing trips to Chile, Del Zorro Lodge. Chilean Patagonia's Estancia del Zorro is in the Coyhaique Alto mountain range on the Chilean-Argentine border, 23 miles from Coyhaique, Chile. The 15,000 acre Estancia rests in the habitat of the red fox (zorro), the namesake of the Estancia. Zorro is a full service lodge where we can house up to twelve guests. An abundance of condors, ragles, a myriad of other birds, and unexplored brown trout entice flyfishers and bird watchers to follow the trail of the red fox.

Fly Fishing. The waters you will fish include streams, rivers and spring creeks, all located within the boundaries of the 15,000-acre Estancia or a short drive from the lodge. Many of these waters are seldom fished and some have only recently been discovered, producing diverse fishing conditions. While some offer exciting dry-fly action, others require challenging sight fishing in pristine, crystal clear waters where fish can grow as large as 32 inches. The Del Zorro spring creek, only 200 yards from the lodge, offers easy walk-in fishing for large, heavy brown trout. You will also have the unique opportunity to explore private freestone streams in both Argentina and Chile, two countries in one trip, reached by 30- to 90- minute rides by four-wheel-drive vehicles from the lodge.

The Rio Simpson, the crown dry-fly jewel of the Coyhaique region, is yours to float just one hour from Zorro. This river is divided into 3 distinct river types: the gravelly runs and pools of the smaller upper river hold large rainbows and browns, the middle stretches contain long gravel bars where king salmon spawn, and the lower river has long deep boulder-filled runs that provide some of South America’s best match-the-hatch fishing to large browns and rainbows.

Fishing season. The season at del Zorro runs from the first of December through the first week of April.

Accomodation. The guests will stay at all inclusive del Zorro Lodge. A main Quincho or Great Room invites guests to relax, swap fish stories, and make plans for the next day's angling. Also located in the main building is the dining room where both breakfast and dinner will be served. Here guests prepare their individual stream-side lunches and meet for social hour after fishing.

Travel Arrangements. Fishing trips to Chile, del Zorro will be arranged throughout the fishing season and the packages can be booked according to the client’s preferred dates subject to availability. Anglers will take international flight to Chile, Santiago, continue with another flight to Balmaceda, meet guide and continue with guide's car to the lodge.
