"My trip last March was excellent, but this time was even better!! Guides were fantastic and I was catching up to 60 fish a day - unbelievable!
I am already looking forward to returning in March 2013.
Again my sincere thanks to you and all your staff for enabling me to have such a fantastic time."

"A trip that is hard to beat! Excellent fishing in a large variety of rivers and streams. Browns, Rainbows and Brook trout all of various weights. Fantastic sport lead by knowledgeable and very experienced guides. Food and accommodation was equal to the fishing!"

"Our favorite part of the trip was fishing, food & wine with great conversations.
If we could have changed something about our trip we would of skipped Mendosa and fished for a 2nd week.
The Mai 10 transfers Orvis Travel set up in Buenos Aires were GREAT! They took all of the fear out of the Airport transfers. We highly Recommend them! Estancia Tecka is a tough place to get to. You have to allow for travel changes and bad weather. Once your there, they will take good care of you. As a fly fisherman, I wake-up early to fish first light. That is NOT the Argentina fishing schedule. It took me 3 days to fully appreciate the RELAXED Argentina Schedule! Breakfast at 9:00, Fishing by 10:00, Lunch at 2:30, siesta, afternoon fishing at 5:30 to dark, shower, cocktails at 10:30, dinner at 11:00 and finally to bed around 1:00AM. Once I adjusted, I had the time of my life!"

"In March of ‘06 three friends and myself had a fantastic week of fishing on the Corcovado and Tecka. I began visiting Argentina in ‘66 and this, my 18 th trip, was my best. The weather was the worst I had experienced in the 18 years, but the fishing was the best, quite cold, very windy and a lot of rain. Normally the wind and temperature are mild and the rain is non existent. Mild climate and lack of rain are why I much prefer Argentina to New Zealand. The first day we fished the Corcovado in a drift boat with a superb young guide speaking perfect English and giving excellent advice without criticism. We had rising fish and caught a number of large rainbows and browns over 20 inches. Our best fish was a 27” rainbow that made four jumps, clearing the water each time. The Tecka was very good the first day we fished it, catching lots of little brook trout and some larger rainbows and browns. We were told to keep all brook trout for breakfast and release all rainbows & browns. The second day on the Tecka was outstanding. George Richards had re routed several miles of the willow choked Tecka through a large prairie and this new habitat had encouraged the rainbows and browns to take over. We caught more rainbows than brook trout, with rainbows around 18” & 19” and a few browns of the same size. One member of our party, Jim Romig, caught a 19” brook trout on a dry fly. Wow! The Estancia Tecka gets my highest recommendations."
