UGLY BUG FLY SHOP'S DESTINATION FISHING TRIPS ALL OVER THE WORLD

At Magic Waters Patagonia, our main and first fly fishing operation in Patagonia, we are always looking for new adventures, and always looking to find new waters for our friends and clients. For long time we were looking at Blanco River. We were wondering about the fishing and mainly about how to set up an operation in this pristine and untouched 30 miles of river. So, between Eduardo Barrueto and Andi Manstein we decided to go forward and start setting up this fantastic dream, that we called The River of Dreams.

We are very proud of our fantastic team of guides at the River of Dreams. Yes, we are a team. We all work together, to try to give our guests the best experience they can have.

Andi Manstein is the host, manager and head guide at the River of Dreams. Andi is a German computer engineer who came to Patagonia almost 20 years ago, and decided to change his city life in Germany, for a peaceful life in one of the most beautiful places on the planet. He and his wife Yvonne found a beautiful and remote piece of land at the end of Caro Lake, where Blanco river starts. They decided to stay and went ahead and built a beautiful house at the lake and started a new life and a family in Patagonia. Between both of them they built everything they needed to live a comfortable life right in heaven. They have 2 beautiful children, Luna and Felix. Andi became a carpenter and fishing guide.

Grand Slam Fishing Lodge is like an exclusive resort that happens to be run by fishermen, for fishermen (and their non-fishing companions).

Situated on a narrow, palm tree-studded strip of sand, the lodge faces the Caribbean on one side with the lagoon lapping on the other side. So you get great sea views plus easy access to Ascension Bay with our lagoon dock.

Enjoy the beach on comfortable, king-sized Bali day beds. Go for a swim – the sea has a sandy bottom and nearby areas of coral for snorkeling. You can opt for the swimming pool.

The main lodge has a tropical thatched-roof design with natural flair. It features a social area, a bar with swings for seats, and Kai Restaurant with a covered beachfront deck. There’s a library, and fly tying station.

The Agua Negra Camp is a remote yet luxurious tent camp/lodge perched on a bluff overlooking the Secure River. Roughly 100 yards away is the small native village of Agua Negra, which makes this camp by far the most culturally rich of the Tsimane experiences. Here anglers will enjoy very comfortable double occupancy safari tents with attached baths as well as the comfort of the main lodge building where drinks and meals are served. The fishing will be done on the main Secure as well as on the Agua Negra River. The Agua Negra is smaller and offers not only big dorado but the region’s most forgiving terrain as well as the greatest diversity of species including large pacu, pira pita and the elusive striped catfish known as surubi.
