The call of the Russian Far East: Fantastic Silver Salmon and Kundzha fishing in the Yama river

After the comparable minor run of Silver Salmon last year in  Magadan – we still had great fun (Please check our photostream!), local biologists expect a record run this year. Magadan may well turn out to be the best place to be for silver salmon this year and we have another GREAT OFFER!!! The trip will last from September 4th- 17th. This means that there will be 11 nights at the Yama river and plenty of chances to catch the elusive Kundzha, Silver Salmon, Chum, huge and numerous Artic Grayling (Locals have caught grayling up to 2.5 kg) and other various types of chars.

Price: Euro 3195 (all-inclusive from and to Magadan, including helicopter) plus flights to and from Magadan to Europe – appox. Euro 1000-1200.

Patagonia Fishing Report February 06th – March 02nd 2011

Four completely different destinations in one trip

From Coyhaique, Patagonia’s capital, Marlies, I and friends Peter, Yves and Rolf first headed down the Carretera Austral by 4WD where we made a short but impressive stop at some of Rio Baker’s tributaries.

Many King were jumping but due to high temperatures, low water and other interests we did not spend much time there. Exploring the area further south, staying in lovely cabins was our prime but difficult goal. Difficult to find and even more difficult to finally get to the water. But our efforts were rewarded by  some 3-4 wild Trout, mostly Browns, each p.p.p.d  with sizes  between 50 and 78cm. Of course there were also lots of small juvenile fish but not on places with big fish. We fished (mostly dry: Caddis,Sedges, Tshernobyl Ants) completely on our own both  in anonymous  rivers and lagunas and  lake outlets, which are sometimes visited by locals, all in  spectacular nature.

Next place was up north from Coyhaique where we enjoyed crazy private fishing from our luxury accommodation. Again 6-7 big Trout pppd from 45 up to 78 cm, a mixture from Browns and Rainbows( in some parts hatchery fish). Here we experienced  broken tippets on

many big, big  fish (something that usually never happens to me…I feel ashamed). Great scenery, great variation in lakes and streams (that most of the season hold smaller fish at around 40-45 cm) .

The third part was south of Coyhaique, the famous lakes area. Deep blue and crystal clear Rio Paloma is from an astonishing beauty. But at that time somewhat overfished by rafts at the end of the season, just before the Trout start running from the lakes into the rivers again. A good guide with great accommodation however could still offer an unknown alternative , certainly before and during evening hatches when good numbers of 40-50 cm Browns were caught.

Finally, we made a trip to the Argentinian Sant Cruz Province where we had discovered a lovely estancia some 4 years ago. A beautiful stream with moderate sized strong wild Rainbows, fed by one of the bigger lakes above, in front of our guesthouse. A bit further up a moon shaped volcanic laguna, not only full of fossils but also of very big Rainbows up to 8 kg, however , at least earlier, released from a hatchery,  plus Condors, Zorro’s, Flamingo’s, Guanacas, Hares, Goose, Patagonian Swans and many other animals performed a totally relaxed atmosphere, certainly also in the Lounge with a Long drink and an asado.

Our  last night in a lovely,  cosy hotel in Santiago including  a 500 G T-Bone steak with good Missiones do Rengo red wine completely fitted into this great trip……
