Golden Dorado, beautiful rainbows and fat browns – that’s what awaits in Argentina! April 9th-17th, 2021 we’re heading down to Urban Dorado Anglers and Las Pampas Lodge for pure fishing heaven, total indulgence and an Argentinian experience like no other. Use your rod and reel, use your tenkara fly rod, use one or use them both. We’re about having fun, catching fish and living life in a big way. Both lodges offer fantastic fishing for species including golden dorado, big brown and beautiful rainbows. Whether you do it on a regular fly rod and reel or explore American Tenkara fishing methods, these lodges will get you into plenty of fish and can help you learn something new… maybe even offer a new challenge. The point is to live big and full and have fun. The staff and guides at UDA and LPL are experts at both styles of fly fishing and have the gear if you don’t. Here’s the tentative dates and itinerary which may vary by a day or two since we’re planning so far out. This will all be settled well in advance so that you can plan and make arrangements with lots of time.

We announced this trip early to give you plenty of time to plan, make arrangements, and figure it all out. Buenos Aires is an incredible city. Argentina is an incredible country and UDA and LPL are incredible lodges with amazing fisheries. This can be a rod and reel or a tenkara adventure – or a combination of both. Forget your lattes, THIS is what you work for! I made this trip 2 years ago and it was so amazing, I knew I’d be back.
Flight Information:
While you can book flights directly on your own, we travel a lot and utilize a service. They ALWAYS find better deals than we can on our own, so I do encourage their use. While the trip is more than 1 year away, you should plan on about $1200-$1400 for airfare based on a Denver to Miami, Miami to Buenos Aires and Buenos Aires to Esquel, roundtrip per person. Business Class could be from $2500 -$2800 per person. If you book through Ben’s Travel Service, it could be less. We can do this as a group and probably save a bit more.
Payment Schedule:
Las Pampas is a small Lodge. It accommodates 8 anglers double occupancy, in 4 rooms. It is an intimate and spectacular Argentinian experience that just adds another dimension to the incredible fishing. You will be spoiled. I promise.
To hold your place an initial deposit of ¼ the trip cost needs to be made by May 15, 2020 = $1537.00
A final payment of the balance of the cost needs to be made by December 25, 2020 = $4613.00
We have space for 6 Anglers so reserve your spot NOW!
ARGENTINA CANCELLATION / REFUND POLICY: For our Argentine fishing packages, both deposits and final payments are non-refundable — unless a client is replaced. Both deposit and final payment can be transferred to another client for those same (original) dates.
