GUAMINI, Buenos Aires province, Argentina
Duck, Dove, Pigeon, Pheasant, Hare
+ Big game hunt

 

June 15-20th

Trip of a lifetime.
Our good friend Dick Kennerknecht, from Casper-WY, has organized a truly 'trip of a lifetime' for this group. After staying one night at the Alvear Hotel in the nice neighborhood of Recoleta -the heart of Buenos Aires city- we departed on charter flight to Guamini area, considered one of the best places in Argentina for bird hunting. We stayed at La Sistina Lodge. Duck hunting was unblebable: everybody shoot the limit of 20 ducks per day per hunter!!! Then, during the afternoon the party get crazy with the dove shooting quality: plenty of birds. Some of them shoot 20 boxes, but Kelvin and Victor shoot more than 40 each!!! amazing... One of the journeys we organize a relaxed, but interesting hunt: pheasant, pigeon, hare and perdiz walking with dogs, the group enjoy a lot this outing. Victor, an entusiasthic hunter, also decide to make a big game hunt. Results, can be better: Feral Goat, Fallow Deer, Muflon, Ram and Blackbuck Antelope. We are waiting the final result, but a first measurement said that one of the ram probably will be Top 4 on the SCI Southamerican record, and one of the Blackbucks, probably Top 6. Can´t you imagine, two Top 10 trophies in only one day? Congratulations Victor!!! Back to Buenos Aires on a charter flight, they departed back to US promising themselves to return soon.

Dick, my friend... hope you and your party enjoyed this 'lifetime hunting trip'.

JURAMENTO and DORADO rivers, Salta province - Argentina
Dorado fly fishing

 

April 25th

As you know Salta. is for me probably my favorite destination in Argentina for Dorado flyfishing. The warm weather, the virgin landscape in the middle of the yungas (southamerican jungle), and of course the chance to fish the really big ones in the Juramento river. Beside this, consider the other two jewels: the rio Del Valle and the rio Dorado, crystal clear water and sightseeing fishing. If you are a skilled fly fisherman you must book a trip to this challenging area. 100% recommendable. You will never forget the experience. Season close next November 15th, been September, October and November the high season.
