Some people are able to find small isolated villages that they know and go
back to year after year but as yet I have not been able to get a handle on
these - and I can speak Spanish



I doubt that would be possible to find without being there.

IF I go it will be at least next season ( a year roughly ). If I like it
and find I can afford it, I may return annually to a particular 'base."

Thus far I've developed the impression that you can have any degree of
'adventure' you wish and still find quality fishing. That is, you can
be packed into remote areas far from roads, or you can stay in a town and
day trip ... and still find fishing that will please .. me. Such fishing
will be better than much in current Montana, but may NOT be epic encounters
with double digit fish, or other dream-world situation.

I find little mention of 'dry fly' fishing :-( but that is probably
because most visiting anglers are doing a 'fish of a lifetime' thing,
suggesting sunken lures ... "my size" trout rise to bugs, bugs that live in
clean cold water, something Patagonia has plenty of still
.... I'll find 'em G




I get fed up with our culture during the times each year that I live in it
... ... not just our politics, lots of crap that simply qualifies as 'our
culture' ... "buy, buy, buy, it's what makes you, ... you" bull****
mainly .

I get almost totally away from that, even though I'm only a mile from town,
each summer. But my current summer schedule isn't enough time away to
suit me each year.

I'm not looking for death defying adventures, rather some camping
near good waters, where Nature still controls most of what occurs and what I
notice and ponder each day.

Fishing equal to what I get each summer would be just fine with me, I have
little internal drive to be a fly rod hero ( although if I am, expect
pictures and bragging :-).

I, honestly, wouldn't consider going to Patagonia "instead of" Montahoming
but it adds months to my potential "fishing" season.
