Collon Cura River

The Collon Cura River is a wide, fish-filled Patagonian steppe river. It is a classic riffle-run-pool river with classic willow-lined banks, fished both by floating in drift boats, and by wading. The river is filled with powerful rainbow trout and large browns that can be fished for with dries, nymphs and streamers.

  • The season starts on the Collon Cura River in late November, often with dense mayfly and caddis hatches. These continue through December and January, the favorite months for those who like to match hatches as well as throw large attractor dries.
  • As well, the famous “Inchworm Hatch” occurs in January. The numbers of big fish on the surface gobbling insects in these months can be unbelievable!
  • As the summer days get longer and warmer in February and March, the insect hatches tend to occur in the mornings, followed by tremendous action pounding the banks with large foam dries. These are the months anglers normally begin to see a smattering of the huge brown trout that migrate up from the downstream lake, and it is not unusual to hook them on big dry flies.
  • In February the unique “Minnow Hatch” occurs, with tens of thousands of small baitfish running up out of the downstream lake, migrating for miles upriver, then turning around and running the trout gauntlet back downstream. It is not unusual to hook dozens of beautiful big fish on small streamers during this phenomenon, often casting to fish that are blowing small baitfish into the air!
  • For those who really want to concentrate on huge lake-run browns, April is a prime month, and anglers should be ready to throw large streamers on sinking tip lines. The river’s many rainbows will often continue to come up for dries this month, but the days are getting cold!

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you, Stan Masneri

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
