Chile: Fly Fishing the Futaleufu
Fly Fishing on the Futaleufu River in Patagonia, Chile
Bio Bio Expeditions began as a whitewater rafting and kayaking company, yet through our years in Patagonia, our guides have developed a passion for fly fishing to match their passion for whitewater.
What makes our adventure travel company so unique is that we have pioneered fly fishing in whitewater, allowing you to fish eddies that are in between stretches of the Futaleufu River's rapids and which can only be accessed by watercraft. A new challenge for many fly fishermen (and women), we have 3 catarafts which are professionally outfitted with state of the art fishing frames, casting platforms and swivel seats. Because of our highly professional whitewater skill, our fly fishing guides can put your boat in any spot on the Futaleufu that you like.
Additionally, our Futaleufu River Adventure Base Camp is ideally situated right on the river and right in the middle of one of the most beautiful, calm canyons on the "Fu". Every morning you can fly fish the Futaleufu's turquoise blue waters in front of our camp from a cataraft or cast from our put-in eddy just a moment's walk from your riverfront bungalow. Truly a unique new place to test out your whitewater fly fishing skills!Testimonials
Wow!! What an amazing trip we had. It was such a blast and so beautiful there. Thank you so much for making it such a perfect trip. Your camp is incredible, and the set up is impressive. The food was delicious but most of all your staff was just incredible. They are gifted guides with so much skill and knowledge about the river and the area. We had so much fun with them and loved getting to know them. — Kim – Futaleufu 2010
We had an incredible trip on the river. For me actually it was a metamorphosis to a degree. Thank you for all your help and effort – it was one of the best times I have had in years – maybe decades even. It was like being in a dream and we all felt that way. The camp was five star! It may have just changed this ancient man’s life a bit. — Al Read – Futaleufu 2007
