Events at Leland Fly Fishing Outfitters:

Monsters of Jurassic Lake:
Day: Wednesday, Feb 25
Time: 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm


Come on in to the shop on Wednesday, Febuary 25, to enjoy Argentinian Wine and cheeses. Mike Nelson, owner of the Patagonia Fishing Company, started outfitting in Argentina in 1999, and has since grown to 5 great fly fishing operations covering most of Patagonia, including Tierra Del Fuego and Jurassic Lake. Please join us and Mike Nelson as he walks you through all of the fishing possibilities of Argentina moving north to south. With numerous great videos, some argentine wine, and snacks, hopefully you will enjoy some time hearing about the fishing possibilities within Argentina and Patagonia. We will cover everything from high end lodges to camping/float trips, Sea Run Browns to enormous Rainbows, technical dry fly opportunities to down-n-dirty streamer fishing, and just about every other scenario you can imagine for a fishing trip to Patagonia. We promise this to be fun, educational, and lots of fish footage.

Jurassic Lake is nothing short of a biological anomaly and must be the most prolific trophy rainbow fishery on the planet. The lake itself is a large desert sink measuring approximately 20 by 20 kilometers. It is located at about 3,000 feet elevation in the wide open, desolate expanse of the Patagonian steppe. And while the lake looks like a saltwater body of water with its wind-chop, blue water channels and shelves, it is teaming with small scuds and massive rainbows. Here the fish average over 10 pounds with countless fish in the mid-teens as well as good numbers of fish in the 20-30 pound class. These fish are freakishly stout, incredibly strong and wildly acrobatic.
