Fishing near Chilecito, La Rioja
Chilecito sits in the Famatina valley of La Rioja province, surrounded by the arid ranges of the Sierras de Famatina. The fishing scene here revolves around the small mountain rivers that drain those ranges — among them the Río Amarillo, Río Grande, and Río Volcancito — where anglers work moving freshwater in a high-desert setting far removed from Patagonia's famous circuits.
