ESTANCIA TECKA LODGE

Located about 50 miles South of the city of Esquel this vast working sheep ranch encompasses 435,000 acres in beautiful Patagonia. From freestone rivers to spring creeks this ranch offers over 96 miles of private water set at the base of the Andes Mountains. From its inception in 1910, when the British imported Merino wool sheep from Australia, this Estancia continues to produce not only the finest wool but some of the best trout fishing anywhere in the world. You’ll rarely see another person near this river, except for the estancia’s gauchos on horseback.

The combination of rich history, exclusive access fisheries, high-end amenities and meticulous attention to detail has earned Tecka a well-deserved reputation as a premier Patagonian fly fishing destination.

The best kept secret of Patagonia.

Fishing

Estancia Tecka provides what no other ranch in Argentina can, 96 miles of private trout water. The Corcovado winds through the property on its way to the Pacific Ocean and is home to Rainbow, Brown and Brook Trout.

This larger river is fished mainly from drift boats while some wading is done in freestone flats and banks.The smaller spring creek, Rio Tecka, is fished delicately from the banks with various dry fly patterns and produces exciting strikes and large fish. Additional spring creeks are found throughout the property and provide the ultimate test of skill for any angler. You can find some lagoons with great fish as well. With its varying landscape and diverse rivers this ranch is the ultimate Patagonia trout fishing experience
