San Huberto Lodge and Estancia 3 Picos
  The Lodge......
 

Estancia Arroyo Verde is located about two hours south from San Martin de los Andes Town, and about an hour away from Bariloche.

This elegant and fancy Lodge offers excellent cuisine, uniformed service, and a very peaceful ambience. The beautiful main house is surrounded by magnificent scenery and landscapes, and not far from the Traful river.

The main house offers 1 single and 3 double bedrooms each one with private bathroom, plus one comfortable suite for 2 to 4 guests with one bathroom in an adjacent building.

For those who are looking for extra seclusion and impressive views they also offer accommodations for 4 more guests in the lake cabin (also ideal for families), which has all the necessary comfort to enjoy a quiet and relaxed stay (fire place, kitchen, bar). The log cabin overlooks the Traful lake and its located on top of a rocky cliff, just 10 minutes away from the main lodge.

This is another river that is known around the fly fishing world. Why?

Maybe because this is the best river in all Patagonia to find and catch trophy Atlantic Landlocked Salmon and at the same time the challenge of big browns and rainbows.

THE TRAFUL RIVER runs through the most magical wind and water sculpted valley providing great fishing structure and unforgettable scenery.
Sight Fishing: The pristine and crystal clear waters are perfect to sight fish and cast to them. I won't say it easy to cast knowing already the size of this trout, but it's a lot of fun!
Average trout run from 20 " to 24". Fishing can be hard some days, but catching one of this monsters will definitely make your day! It is not un usual to find big browns and rainbows that easily exceed 26", but catching them is a different story....
Atlantic landlocked Salmon can be frequently found, and catching 3 to 10 lbs salmon is not strange, especially in early or late season, holding a record of a 18-lb. salmon.
A lot of the fishing is done with big dries (4-14) and nymphs, but in some cases a good streamer or a mouse pattern will be the only tool to turn the trophy ones ....
The access to the fishing areas is very easy and fast. Estimate 5 to 15 minutes
In most of the cases the wadding is easy to very easy, except a couple of rocky areas
Early or late Season is usually the best time to catch salmon !
