FISHING IN HILLS AND STREAMS - ARGENTINA

The stream of the Córdoba hills (West) and Mendoza mountains (Los Andes) increasingly beckon more fishermen looking for salmonids outside Patagonia.

GETTING THERE
In order to get to Mendoza's fishing grounds anglers take flights from Buenos Aires to the capital city of that province or to San Rafael in the south. Córdoba's operating base is in its capital city. Buses go to the towns closest to fishing centers such as Malargüe (Mendoza) or Santa Rosa de Calamuchita (Córdoba)

WEATHER
Temperatures are very low from May to September, and the fishing season is closed. In summer, the weather is nice, but warm clothes are recommended.

SPECIES AND METHODS
The finest and most outstanding fishing is that for trout in Mendoza rivers and small Córdoba streams.
Landlocked salmon have been planted in watercourses such as the Grande river (Córdoba). Fly-fishing is almost the only method used. The silver side is caught float fishing in the dams.

SEASON
Season Runs between the months of November and April.

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
Each province determines the places qualified for fishing and permit costs.

LODGING
What local tourist agents are most likely to offer are cabins and bungalows. New companies focused on needs of anglers are being set up.
