Guests of PRG have the opportunity to enjoy the most comprehensive fly fishing programs from over ten diverse lodging choices across the three most productive regions of Patagonia, Argentina – Esquel, Rio Pico and San Martin de los Andes. Every trip is customized according to the angler’s needs and desires, and trips as short as three days or as long as three weeks are easily executed. The PRG experience is a unique blend of inspiring waters, varied fishing, beautiful scenery, interesting culture, lasting friendships and unrivaled service, complemented by gourmet and regional cuisine, delicious wines and first-class accommodations. There are few places in the world where you can enjoy the diversity and quality of fishing offered in Patagonia, but careful planning and execution are critical to getting the most out of your fly fishing trip. At PRG, our philosophy to fishing is straightforward: fish the best rivers, at the best times, with the best guides. On any given day, PRG’s guests could find themselves wading small freestone streams or spring creeks, floating bigger rivers from comfortable rafts or drift boats, stalking fish and sight fishing in gin-clear water or even spending a day in search of fish over ten pounds on our area still waters. Fish size and numbers depend on the type of water and the angler’s skill level, but we are confident that the quality, diversity and unparalleled beauty of our fisheries will not disappoint. Since we have so many options, extended stays are recommended in order to see and experience as much as possible in one, two or all three of our distinct regions. Sincerely, Rance, Travis, and Alex RANCE RATHIE TRAVIS SMITH ALEX KNÜLL 5 TREVELIN HIGHLIGHTS THE PRG NORTH EXPERIENCE Guests of PRG North enjoy signature service, state-of-the-art equipment and the country’s best pro guides in Patagonia’s most northern region. Like all of PRG’s programs, PRG North offers the most complete all-inclusive programs in the country so anglers don’t have to worry about a single detail. The difference between PRG South, which manages only one lodge in each region, PRG North utilizes a portfolio of huge private estancias surrounding the quaint towns of San Martín and Junín de los Andes. The estancias offer first-class lodging, delicious food and wonderful service in addition to private access to Northern Patagonia’s best waters. The private estancia program is the best way to get a glimpse into authentic country lifestyle and culture at its best. Incredible rivers such as the Chimehuín, Aluminé, Collón Cura, Malleo, Traful, Limay and the Filo Hua Hum offer guests some of the best dry fly fishing in all of South America. Hatches are prevalent including unique giant yellow mayflies, aphids, and willow worms. Classic mayfly, stonefly and caddis hatches - similar to those in the Western US - also bring fish to the surface, while pancora crabs and minnow runs keep trout fat and super charged. Hundreds of miles of productive rivers and millions of acres of wide-open spaces await those interested in fishing the Patagonia’s Northern Region, but careful planning and expert outfitting is critical to make the most of one’s stay. PRG offers the knowhow and expertise to program and then execute your ultimate flyfishing adventure. 6 7 TREVELIN HIGHLIGHTS FISH THE BEST RIVERS WITH THE BEST GUIDES PRG North is directed by PRG North partner, Alex Knull, along with Rance Rathie and Travis Smith, founders of Patagonia River Guides. Alex was born and raised in the region and started guiding for area outfitters and estancias when he was eighteen. Alex’s diverse experiences in the region helped form a wealth of knowledge, especially considering that his family has been involved in the industry for three generations. Alex books each PRG North trip and ensures that each and every guest has a trip of a lifetime! Guides are the strength of all of the Patagonia River Guides operations, and PRG was specifically built around the principle to attract, train and retain the country’s best guides. PRG North is no exception to the rule. As long-time pro guides and outfitters, Alex, Rance and Travis understand that a good guide can often be the difference between an average trip and the trip of a lifetime, which is why they take great care in maintaining the best guide staff in the region. Without exception, PRG’s guides are talented professionals, enthusiastic teachers, passionate fishermen and expert oarsmen. Apart from their extensive fishing skills, they also enjoy sharing their local knowledge of flora, fauna, culture and history. 10 11 CUSTOMIZE YOUR OWN TRIP Contact us today!

The estancia program is the most authentic program offered by PRG + where guests will enjoy a true working ranch, wide-open spaces, and private water within. Each lodge or estancia house has distinct personnel, managers, and own culture. The history of the estancias are apparent in that most areas have been settled for over a century, often being run by the same families, thus experiencing very little development. Long fishing days are the norm at the estancias, and it is not unusual to fish in the morning, return to the estancia for a relaxing lunch, then resume fishing until dark. Another option is to spend the entire day on the water, stopping to enjoy a wonderful picnic lunch set by the river. Flexibility is the key to the estancia program and any length of stay from three days to two weekscan be designed. In addition to the excellent estancias offered, PRG North is also home to PRG Unplugged and any itinerary can also include a wilderness camping trip, offering a unique way to experience 5-star lodges and 5-billion star skies in the same trip. 12 13 HIGH END LODGING 16 | TIPILIUKE LODGE 22 | THE RIVER HOUSE 30 | SAN HUBERTO 36 | ARROYO VERDE 44 | TRES RIOS LODGE 52 | NORTHERN PATAGONIA LODGE SIGNATURE LODGES & PROGRAMS & LODGES SIGNATURE AUTHENTIC LODGING 58 | MAMUIL MALAL 66 | QUEMQUEMTREU 72 | TRES LAGOS ADVENTURE 78 | UNPLUGGED PRG NORTH | PRG NORTH | TIPILIUKE LODGE HIGHLIGHTS + 50,000 + acres in private estancia Cerro de los Pinos + High-end lodge and very convenient location + 15 minutes from the local airport + Cozy atmosphere with warm decoration and high-class service + Variety of non-angling activities + Miles of private water on the estancia + Variety of off-site private water options + Diverse fishing program offering a different river, spring creek or lake program each day + Spring creek and side channels on property, perfect for wade fishing TIPILIUKE | PRG NORTH + Proximity to the town makes for regular daily visits to explore and shop FLY FISHING NON-ANGLING ACTIVITIES TIPILIUKE LODGE SPECIAL AMENITIES + Horseback riding to fishing access on the estancia LODGE FEATURES + Possibility to hike and explore the property + Yoga and tango studio, hot tub, massage room COUPLES FRIENDLY + Mountain bikes available VARIETY & PRIVATE WATER + Sitting areas outside to enjoy a drink around the fire or a book by the hammocks.

The hydrological year begins in March with a maximum in June associated with rainfall and another relative maximum in October derived from snow- break. General features of the rainy season and the excess or deficits thereof are analyzed using standardized precipitation index (SPI) for a six-month period in the basin. The SPI has a significant cycle of 14.3 years; the most severe excess (SPI greater than 2) has a return period of 25 years, while the most severe droughts (SPI less than −2) have a return period of 10 years. The SPI corresponding to the rainy season (April–September) (SPI9) has no significant trend and is used to classify wet/dry years. In order to establish the previous circulation patterns associated with interannual SPI9 variability, the composite fields of wet and dry years are compared.

MACCHI1, & PABLO H. VIGLIANO1,2 1. Grupo de Evaluación y Manejo de Recursos Ícticos, Centro Regional Universitario Bariloche, Universidad Nacional del Comahue, Bariloche, Argentina. 2. Instituto de Investigaciones en Biodiversidad y Medioambiente, Universidad Nacional del Comahue, Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas, Bariloche, Argentina ABSTRACT. The present structure of the fish fauna of Patagonia has been influenced by natural processes and by the introduction of exotic fish with varying purposes. An analysis of the introductions between 1904 and 2011 in relation to 54 drainages showed that the differential success of salmonid species introduced into Patagonia is related to human actions, environment, evolutionary history and plasticity of the introduced species as well as to their abiotic and biotic interactions. Throughout time shifting policies have lacked clear goals and mandates, ultimately producing management actions and strategies rarely based on actual knowledge. In recent years two broad general management goals have emerged, conservation of native fish and economic growth through development of salmonid sport fisheries. Despite of the growing number of biological and ecological studies, there is a shortage of specific management studies. This is brought about in part because the different stake holders involved have partial views of the complexity of managing the resource and its fragility, and also due to their limited interaction. Only cooperation and concerted planning among interested parties may lead us to local and regional policies that take into account the above described goals.
