for more exploring.
Our second fishing expedition was based out of
Coyhaique. We fished with local
guide, Ivan Toro (email: troutaike@hotmail.com
). We previously had fished with
Ivan in 2005 and it was great to once again explore these waters with him.
The Coyhaique area is famous for rivers such as the Rio Simpson, Rio
Manihuales and Rio Aysen to mention a few. We had a great time fishing on
these rivers as well as several others.
Also, based on Ivan's recommendation, we stayed in a lovely hotel, Hostal
Bellasario Jara ( www.belisariojara.itgo.com
) while in Coyhaique. We highly recommend both fishing with Ivan and
enjoying the hospitality of Hostal Belasario Jara. Photographs of our trip
highlights follow.
