Fishing near Río Tercero, Córdoba


Río Tercero sits in the Tercero Arriba department of Córdoba province, at the edge of the Sierras Chicas foothills. The city takes its name from the Río Tercero (also called Ctalamochita), and the large reservoir formed by damming that river — the Embalse del Río Tercero, also known as Embalse Ministro Juan Pistarini — is the dominant fishing destination in the area. Pejerrey is the marquee species, drawing anglers to fish from shore, by boat, or trolling across the reservoir's broad surface. Embalse Piedras Moras lies nearby as a secondary still-water option.
