Welcome to our team's angling exploits
Flash News from the our good friend Pancho, owner of Carrileufu Valley Lodge, regarding the volcano: For all interested fly fishers I would like to comment about the most recent volcanic eruption in Chile and what it may mean to you. First, the fishing habitat, not the fish, is the only concern as biologists have already confirmed that in certain …
