Río Candelaria flows through the wild and remote landscape of Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, as one of the notable tributaries of the Río Grande. This river holds a special place in the history of Patagonian fly fishing — it was one of the original waters where brown trout were first introduced to the island in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Those early stockings, carried out by pioneering naturalist John Goodall who transported fish in milk cans filled with water and moss, set the stage for what would become one of the most remarkable sea-run brown trout fisheries on the planet. The Candelaria drains into the Río Grande system, and its cold, productive waters have served as both spawning habitat and migratory corridor for the legendary sea-run browns that have made Tierra del Fuego famous among fly fishers worldwide.
