With Beautiful Scenery and Fantastic Diversity, Central Texas is a Diamond in the Rough for Fly Fishermen
Central Texas by Will Jukes
It’s understandable that Texas doesn’t make the shortlist of great fly fishing states. Lacking native trout and salmon, we have nothing to offer anglers going after the traditional species of fly fishing.But hidden in the state’s big middle is the central Texas Hill Country, 18,000 square miles of limestone and granite hills clear to emerald green freestone streams.Awash with bass, panfish, catfish and carp, these streams offer a surprisingly classic kind of fly fishing, as well as challenges not to be found elsewhere.

Quite often, there would be a trailer towed behind the wagon carrying my dad’s BMW dual sport motorcycle, his favorite diversion when life and stress got overwhelming. It was my parent’s compromise to head someplace like Disneyworld, the Phantom of the Opera in Toronto, or the Grand Old Opry together, with the knowledge that one or two days of our weeklong journey dad would be biking the most scenic roads nearby (usually with one of us riding behind him).

That experience will help you start fishing on Argentina’s most famous rivers, either solo, with a guide, or at one of several lodges—many of them Best of Patagonia winners.
