Patagonia, Chile

First of all I would like to personally thank all of my fellow friends and clients for the most memorable season this year! We had a great season and I owe it all to my fellow anglers who did their jobs with their 9ft. sticks! Great job guys and gals!

I have some very exciting news as I have gotten the opportunity to work in Patagonia, Chile this year for a world class fly fishing lodge. www.patagonian-basecamp.com or www.theflyshop.com on thier international travel page. I will be leaving on December 8 and will be returing April 15 which is just in time for the Eastern Sierra's fishing opener. This area in Chile is home to some very large bows and browns as well as sea run browns in March. The average size fish is 17-20" with fish over 20" landed daily, fish over 25" landed weekly, and most folks that leave the lodge come home with a new personal record. The lodge record for a brown trout is 32" and for a rainbow it is 28" so if this type of quality of fish interests you at all I would suggest you log on to www.theflyshop.com to make your online reservation as this is the only way to book your stay at the lodge. I will have full internet access at the lodge so feel free to email at any time and I will try to answer any questions that I can. I will also be making a log entry every week with fresh pics, weather forecasts, and just good ole fashion bull shitting to keep all you folks informed on the phenomenal fishing in Chile. I look forward to hearing from you folks and I will see you next summer!

Sincerely,

Nicholas Lawton
