Jurassic Lake Lodge

How To Get There
For fishermen traveling to Jurassic Lake Lodge, we recommend that you fly from Buenos Aires’ Jorge Newbery Airport to Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina. Once in Comodoro a representative from Jurassic Lake Lodge will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel. Spend one night in Comodoro Rivadavia and the following day take a charter flight to Jurassic Lake Lodge. Note that accommodations in Comodoro Rivadavia should be arranged separately and are not included.

Arrival and Departure Details / Times
From Buenos Aires the suggested flight is Aerolineas Argentina flight #1840 that leaves at 3:40 PM and will take you to Comodoro Rivadavia. The following morning at 8 AM a charter flight will leave for Jurassic Lake. On the return trip, the best flight from Comodoro Rivadavia back to Buenos Aires is Aerolineas Argentinas #2835 at 4:05 PM.

Documents Required
Citizens of the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and other Western European nations do not need a visa for tourist trips of up to ninety dates. You will need a valid passport and will have to fill in a landing card on arrival and you will be given a stamp for stays of thirty, sixty, or ninety days. Staple your duplicate of the landing page card into your passport, next to your entrance stamp, as you’ll need it to leave the country. If you do lose it, it’s rarely a serious problem, but you’ll have to fill in a new form at the border control. On entering the country, you’ll also be given a customs declaration form. Duty is not charged on used personal effects, books, and other articles for non-commercial purposes, up to the value of $300. Make sure you declare any valuable electronic items such as laptop computers, as customs officers can be suspicious that you may be bringing them into the country to sell.

General Information
Lago Strobel along with the Barrancoso River and Moro Creek offers some of the best rainbow trout fishing on the planet. Jurassic Lake Lodge has access to tremendous stretches along the lake shoreline. To change up a fishing day, anglers can pursue rainbows on the Barrancoso River, with large rainbows stacked in pools. Since the lodge has exclusive access to 95% of the river the possibilities of finding fish are virtually endless. Aside from the Barrancoso and Lago Strobel, Moro Creek offers more than 10 miles of river between lagoons that produce rainbows in the 4 to 6-pound range. Chase trophy rainbows in Lago Strobel or poke and prod the different pools that make up the Barrancoso and Moro Creek. In all cases, anglers will be impressed by the large fish and astounding waters. Read more about fishing on Jurassic Lake from this great article by our friends at Fly Fisherman Magazine.

Boats and Equipment Required
Almost all fishing in the area is done while wading and fishing from the banks of the lakes or the river.
