Limay River

In Argentina, the mighty Limay River, once flowing freely for about 300 miles from its source Lake Nahuel Huapi near San Carlos de Bariloche until it joins the Neuquen River to form the Rio Negro River on its final destination to the Atlantic Ocean, has its flow now interrupted by five dams.

The Middle Limay

It is the stretch between the Pichi Picún Leufú Dam and Exequiel Ramos Mejia Reservoir that is called "Middle Limay" or "Limay Medio".

As a result of the dam, the Reservoir is a big source of freshwater crabs ‘Pancora’, some that look like trout steaks and minnows from different species creating a great environment for brown and rainbow trout to grow fast and reach unbelievable sizes. These two things combine to make every fall, March - May, a time when big quantities of migratory lake fish swim up into the river joining a very good resident population. They chase schools of bait fish providing exciting action. It is amazing to see such wide color variation fish to fish and how fast they grow making it hard to believe they are all coming from the same place.

Although many target the brown trout, the Middle Limay has hard fighting rainbow trout that will put to test a fisherman’s ability to land them. Considering river sections vary between 100 to 200 meters (300 to 600 ft.), long casts are required, many times against the wind and one should be able to double haul.

If you want a trip of a lifetime with a chance for a trophy and memorable experiences then the Limay River should be on your list!

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!
