Challenge the three most coveted and voracious species of Argentina and achieve the freshwater Grand Slam: Golden Dorado, Pirá Pytá and Pacú. You can also expect to catch several other sporty species.
The Tiger of the River
Golden Dorado
This is the most exciting freshwater species in South America. It has Tarpon-like tendencies and is known for its aggressive strikes, finger-burning runs, acrobatic fights, and overall beauty.
The Elusive Species
PACÚ
This treasured species is as difficult to find and catch as the saltwater Permit. Found only from December to April, it’s a highly coveted fish by serious anglers who seek to complete the Golden Fly Fishing Grand Slam.
The River Salmon
PIRÁ PYTÁ
With Bonefish-like speed, this freshwater fish is known for its line-ripping runs and fierce fighting. It is undoubtedly one of the most exquisite fishing experiences that our region offers and requires the your utmost focus and precision casting dry flies.
100% catch & release
This is one of the founding principles of our company and we seek to transmit it to our clients.
from the Golden Lodge
Golden Fly Fishing is a family business built by two brothers born on the banks of the High Paraná River in Argentina.
We’ll share the experience and knowledge we’ve acquired over 17 years while providing the most unique, professional and personalized service available in the
region.
