Argentina Jurassic Lake Lodge - Patagonia
Jurassic Lake - the most prolific trophy rainbow fishery on the planet
Jurassic Lake Lodge is a world-class fishing operation located in one of the most remote and wild places of the Argentine Patagonia. The lodge is strategically located at a walking distance from the mouth of one significant tributary of lake Strobel: the Barrancoso river.
The Fishing
Jurassic Lake Lodge guides are all long time local anglers with the knowledge on the techniques and tactics to give you the best fishing experience possible. Either a novice fisherman or expert, our guides will show you proven methods to maximise your fishing. Lago Strobel is nothing short of a biological anomaly and must be the most prolific trophy rainbow fishery on the planet. The lake itself is a large desert sink lake measuring approximately 20 by 15 km. And while it looks like a saltwater body of water with its wind-chopped, blue water channels and shelves, it is teaming with small scuds and massive rainbow trout. Here the rainbow trout average over 10 pounds with countless fish in the mid-teens as well as good numbers of fish into the 20+ pound class. The Barrancoso river is a pristine freestone river that runs almost entirely trough our property, from the headwaters at the Mountain Dos Cuernos to the mouth at the Strobel Lake, this unique river holds the best fishing for trophy rainbows in the world. While fishing is done in most of the lake, our lodge is privileged to have the best beats of the lake the only river mouth and nearly most of Barrancoso river and several lagoons.

Accomodation
The lodge has the fortune of being located at the mouth of Lago Strobels only significant tributary, the Barrancoso river. With no outlet, this is far and away the best location on the lake with anglers stacking up huge numbers of big fish virtually every day of the season. Many improvements have been made in the lodge. 5 new double occupancy rooms with private bathroom and hot shower, WIFI and 24 hrs light have been build. A larger and comfortable living room with a great view overlooking the lake. One of the most important improvements is the construction of a landing strip close to the lodge. Clients booking a full week will arrive directly from Comodoro Rivadavia with a charter flight directly at the lodge. Before that getting to Jurassic Lake Lodge used to be a 7-8 hours car ride on a rough 4x4 road. The flight from Comodoro Rivadavia to Jurassic Lake Lodge takes only about an 1 hour.
