Fishing near Santa Lucía, San Juan

Santa Lucía sits in the arid heart of San Juan province, where Andean snowmelt feeds a network of reservoirs and rivers that define the local fishing scene. The closest and most popular destination is Embalse Dique de Ullum, a large reservoir just outside the city, while Dique Punta Negra and Dique Caracoles draw anglers willing to travel further into the cordillera. Rainbow trout are the marquee species in these cold, clear Andean waters.
