Fishing Gallery
The Epu Lodge is centrally located to access a wide variety of rivers, lakes and lagoons.
During a week long visit, you can fish in different locations everyday, or go to the same place more than once! It’s your choice.
Yelcho Lake, Yelcho River, Futaleufu River, Palena River and Espolón Lake are some of our most popular fishing spots.
The dragonfly hatch in the area is one of the most desired and main events to experience in Patagonia. This special hatch occurs from December to February, and it is extraordinary to witness trout that are on the hunt.
Truly an epic experience awaits you!
