🚨 TRAVEL UPDATE 🚨

Argentina is back! With the country set to imminently open up for tourists, and travel restrictions being removed at home too, now is the perfect time to get that dream South American fishing trip in the diary for next season.
🇦🇷
We have availability for sea trout fishing in Tierra del Fuego, non-migratory trout fishing in northern Patagonia and golden dorado fishing in the north of this wonderful country. With top guides, lodges and outstanding food and drink, a fly fishing trip to Argentina is about so much more than catching fish.

Fly fishing for brown, brook and rainbow trout in the clear blue waters of Argentina’s Chubut province is an experience that should be on the list of every passionate trout fisher. The diversity of water to be found in this region is astounding, and you’ll find yourself fishing spring creeks, large main rivers, small wild stillwaters and vast open lakes during your visit - the choice of where and how you fish is yours!
🇦🇷
If you’re looking ahead to a special trip next year now that Argentina is reopening its borders, don’t delay! Drop us a message for more information.

Today is World Oceans Day - a day to draw attention to the issues facing our marine environment, and the wildlife and communities who depend on the sustainable use of our oceans. 🌊

At Farlows Travel we're proud to work with saltwater fly fishing lodges around the world, from Cuba to The Seychelles and Belize to The Bahamas, who are always striving to minimise their impact on the environment, to conduct important fisheries research and to engage with local communities through education and employment.

Even our salmon, sea trout and steelhead freshwater destinations rely on protected and productive seas for their preservation, undertaking many important tagging projects to learn more about migratory fish.

Today we're dreaming of bars of Russian silver from the Lower Kharlovka, so fresh you need to look at them with sunglasses on!
