We're Headed To Argentina!

In just 11 days, the Unicoi Outfitters crew will be headed to Argentina for a week of fishing with Andes Drifters in the famous San Martin area of the Andes. While much of our excitement centers around experiencing world class trout fishing and the Argentine culture, we may be just as pumped about the fact that it is now SUMMER south of the equator. Our group will be departing Atlanta the evening of January 22nd and returning the morning of January 31st with seven days of dry fly fishing in between. We'll be arriving during the peak of the inchworm hatch which makes the big browns of the Alumine River stupid. Just what we're looking for, big, stupid brown trout! We will also be throwing hoppers at rainbows and browns on the Chimehuin and Malleo Rivers and, if the timing is right, we'll be fishing for big lake run trout taking floating minnow patterns on the Caleufu River. All in all, we're looking forward to good fishing, good company, good food and good wines all under the backdrop of the Andes Moutains.

We're still able to schedule more trips during February and March of this year. If you have any interest in going, please check our destination page on our website. We would love to help you experience this trip of a lifetime.

Flyfish Argentina with Unicoi Outfitters and Andes Drifters


For the first time we are offering to our customers an opportunity to experience the awesome trout fishing of Argentina through our association with Andes Drifters. The unusual thing about these trips is your ability to tailor the trip to your own desires and the options you have for yourself as well as a non-fishing traveling companion.

Andes Drifters specializes in providing over 100 alternative activities in addition to world class trout fishing. From eco-adventures to cultural events to art and culinary classes, there is something here for every traveler. And the cost for the trips are up to 25% less than comparable offerings from other fly fishing destinations in Argentina. Gourmet meals prepared by your own private chef simply top off this great excursion.

As we write this, Unicoi Outfitters has been given the opportunity to book the best session of their season, January 23rd - 30th. Cost of the trip is $3,250 not including air fare and gratuity. Everything else, food and beverages (alcohol and non-alcohol), flies and guide fees are covered. For the non-angler who may want to travel with you, the cost is only $2,600 plus air fare.  We are also able to book other weeks as well.  For more information, please drop us a line at flyfish@unicoioutfitters.com.
