The Barrancoso River in Argentina

The Barrancoso River is literally, at the end of the world.  Anglers must travel to Buenos Aires, Argentina, take a regional jet to El Calafate (it’s almost a three-and-a-half-hour flight), and finally board a four-hour shuttle to reach the Estancia on which the river’s located.

Rio Barrancoso is known for it's amazing trout fishing.

The reward for anyone who’s up for a remote fishing adventure to the end of the world is some phenomenal fishing. The Barrancoso River drains into the world famous Strobel Lake AKA Jurassic Lake, and is one of the best small pieces of water in the world for high densities of giant rainbow trout.

Second time I’ve done this particular trip. The steelhead run was awesome! The food was even better than the first time, which is hard to imagine, and our guide is the best there is! If catching big fish is your thing I highly recommend booking through Outdoors International.

I expected big trout on this trip based on all the stories I've read over the years, and I was not disappointed! I broke my own personal best rainbow trout record at least SIX times on this trip, with the biggest being a 16 pound beauty.

I will be going again soon!
