Fishing near Tolhuin, Tierra del Fuego


Tolhuin sits at the heart of Tierra del Fuego, on the southern shore of Lago Fagnano, and serves as the main base for fishing the island's central watershed. The area is best known for brown trout and brook trout in the lake and its tributary rivers — including the Valdez, Milna, Claro, and Tuerto — as well as the lagoons of Palacio, Margarita, and Bombilla. Migratory lake-run brown trout of exceptional size draw fly anglers from around the world, while the surrounding backcountry rivers see comparatively little pressure.
