CHILE
Trip Description
All the trips to these lodges begin with your arrival to Puerto Montt’s international airport. We will pick you up there and transfer you to Yan Kee Way. If you are headed out to El Patagon or Los Banditos you will overnight at Yan Kee Way first. At Yan Kee Way we offer 4, 5 and 8 day adventures, at El Patagon and Los Banditos we offer only 8 day packages. If you can stay 12 days or longer you can sample 2 or more of the lodges.
The fishing in these areas is similar to Alaska in that there is a great variety of fish. We have resident salmon in the lakes, migratory Kings, Silvers, Atlantics and Steelhead in the rivers. The large population of rainbows, browns and brook trout reside year round. Some streams are reached by horseback, boat or 4 wheel drive and then waded, some floa
ted in catarafts while bigger rivers, lakes and estuaries are fished from small power boats. Our private waters combined with private access to remote public waters give us hundreds of miles to fish. Even though the resort can handle a lot more we limit our fishing guests to 8 to preserve the integrity of the fishing.
The fishing day starts with breakfast as early as 6 am depending on the recomendations of your guide. Each evening your guide will check in with you at dinner to go over the next days activities and to get your lunch order. The guides are what make the trip. The head guide is one of Chile's most famous guides and the staff behind him is made up of both Americans and Chileans. You may switch from guide to guide as some specialize in certain waters. There are no finer guides in all of Chile.
You always get full run of the menus at the lodges as well. At Yan Kee Way this means a very wide variety of choices. At El Patagon and Los Banditos ther is more of a planned menu but no less spectacular.
The outdoor enthusiast can enjoy a multi-day ascent of snowcapped Osorno, horseback expeditions, exciting white water rafting, mountain biking, single or multi day treks, rock climbing, photo expeditions, fishing lessons, wine tasting tours, cultural tours and even culinary tours! Some guest combine a few days of fishing with a few days of other stuff. Everyone in your family can enjoy the splendor of Patagonia from one of these fine lodges.
