The Brook Trout Base Camp on the banks of the Rio Corcovado, in Argentina, gives you access to unbelievable remote fishing terrain while enjoying the comforts of a luxury camp. This riverside setting on a private estancia provides comfortable safari-style tents, equipped with comfortable beds and a stove for colder weather. The main dining tent with common areas and full bar offers a comfortable place and plenty of room to settle in and enjoy your cocktails, meals and fishing stories, either riverside, on the deck, or inside, warm and protected when weather is cooler. The Camp is eco-friendly, with solar power producing not only all our electricity needs, but also very hot water for the showers. Heat in both the living area and the bathrooms is provided by wood burning stoves with small space heaters providing warmth in each of the tents. Bathroom and shower tents are separate, and there is a main dining tent with common area and full bar. Not to be missed, you are treated to excellent cuisine and fine Argentine wines to complement your days. The Camp is strategically located to fish a great variety of rivers, creeks and lakes, including those which hold some of the biggest brook trout in the world. Its location also allows anglers to reach some of the best stretches of the river and offers convenient access to the Rio Tigre Basin, which holds the most preserved and pristine population of Brook trout in Patagonia. The head waters of this system are Berta, Engaño, and Falso Engaño lakes, which are all connected by small rivers and spring creeks to each other, being the Rio Tigre the outlet of Falso Engaño lake and flowing straight west to the Chilean border draining all this water to the Pacific, with over 20 miles of rarely fished waters before flowing into Chile. Additionally fish the area of Rio Pico, all within an hour drive from camp, allowing guests to enjoy fishing in this famous area and its outstanding variety of world-class waters.
