- General Information
 Los Morros Lodge is located 110 miles southwest from Rio Gallegos city, in the southern Patagonia and near the foothills of the Andes mountains. The estancia, owned by the Bernad family, occupies a surface of 57.000 acres and is devoted to cattle-breeding and sheep rearing.
The Lodge owns 6,2 miles on both sides of the great Argentine sea trout river - the Gallegos- and 7,5 miles on both sides of the Penitente river which is a tributary of the Gallegos river. The Penitente, immediately adjacent to the Lodge, is a delightful stream where you can hook sea run browns up to 16 pounds and many browns up to 9 pounds.
In the Gallegos, 5 miles from the house, you will experience the unforgettable emotion of catching sea run brown trout up to 18 pounds and enjoy the exciting adventure of struggling with the most beautiful specimens of brown trout which can reach 10 pounds or more.
The fishing season opens on November 15th and ends mid-April. However, January, February and March are considered the best months for this marvelous sport area.

 We arrived Iceland last Wednesday after two nights stay in Copenhagen. The tour was very good, no problems but everything more than fine. The stay in Mar Del Plata was good, hotel splendid and the town interesting.......... But the fishing and our stay in Los Morros was our great "hitt" and best thanks to you for your planning and your service. And not at least great thanks to the beautiful people in Los Morros who did their outmost to make our stay wonderful. The food, accomodation, service, care, guides, etc..all exactly perfect. We liked the rivers and the fishing was good.
We plan to go again, ...
