O V E R A L L   C O N D I T I O N S: The week started with southern wind which brought rain all week. The river rose about a meter and a half the first day, we haven’t seen the river so high ever before, there were trees floating down the river!

The air temperature was low during the week, from 2 to 12 degrees celcius.

Thanks to the helicopter we could do some trips to lagoons close to Tolhuin and the Malenguena later in the week.

R I V E R   C O N D I T I O N S :  Irigoyen river was unfishable for the whole week, we could start fishing the Malenguena river the third day when it got clearer.

F I S H I N G : We didn’t catch any single fish on the Irigoyen, the river was extremely high and muddy. We caught some fish on the Malenguena. At least we should do some fishing regarding the bad weather conditions.

Sinking tips ranging from 3 to 6 inches per second used with mid sized flies. The size of the fish landed ranged from 3 to 14 pounds.

T O T A L  C A T C H E S : Three rods fishing 6 days caught 10 sea trout averaging 6 pounds and the biggest of the week was a 14 pounder.
