FISHING IN THE ANDES FULL DAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Peru possesses excellent locations for trout fishing; the cold waters of the Andes provide the perfect habitat for the growth of trout. In our trips, we will enjoy the fishing of Rainbow trout, this species which lives in rivers and lakes of the high Peruvian Andes<\/strong> is characterized by being of big fight and fishermen require all their knowledge and skills to catch them, becoming a whole trophy for any expert or beginner angler.
Fishing in the Andes<\/strong> is an unforgettable experience that you will enjoy, either Fly fishing or spinning<\/strong>, accompanied by our fishing guides who love this beautiful activity and experienced in both modalities. We have all the equipment: Rods, reels, lines, leaders, nets, 4WD vehicles, fishing equipment, etc.
In the morning we will start casting with small nymphs and emerges in the clear waters<\/strong> of the lake and from noon streamers are very appetizing like black or brown wooly buggers as well as dry flies like the Royal wolf, and the Stone flies<\/strong>. Also very colorful spoons #. 2 or 3 with Spinning<\/strong>. Your fishing guide will give you all the instructions and suggestions for fishing and safety; and of course they are happy to give beginners brief fishing lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
