Terra Nova Travel handles all of our flight arrangements, hotels and transfers en-route to fishing and are experts at designing custom itineraries for non-angling activities either in conjunction with our angling trips or in their own right.
Royal Treatment Flyshop - We're delighted to be able to offer our clients the services of a great flyshop to outfit you for your trip. Whether you're looking for a new rod or that deadly fly pattern, call Joel at Royal Treatment and he'll make sure you have what you need. He has packing lists for all Andean Angler destinations so he knows what you are talking about when you call, email or walk through the front door. If you're in the Portland Oregon area, you'll find the store in West Linn, otherwise, he can be found online at flyshop.royaltreamentflyshop.com
Steamboat Inn - On the banks of Oregon's beautiful North Umpqua River. Fine food and accommodations on one of North America's finest steelhead rivers. With over 30 river miles of flyfishing-only water, the North Umpqua is a very special place. Go there!
Sebastian
Letelier - Flytier, artist and guide
extraordinaire. Sebastian is one of the finest guides I have ever fished with and a genuine talent. His Atlantic Salmon flies are
exquisite - from the choice of materials to the hand made hooks, they
are works of art. He is also a talented artist. Check out his web site for examples of flies, paintings, and sketches.
The North Umpqua Foundation - Renowned for its incredible beauty and storied steelhead trout angling, the North Umpqua River in southwestern Oregon is a national treasure. The North Umpqua Foundation is a non-profit organization devoted to preserving this treasure through the funding and promotion of ongoing conservation measures.
Patagonia - We couldn't imagine taking a trip without gear from Patagonia. Their clothing and fishing gear is well designed, tough, practical and comfortable. On top of all that, they care about the world we live in - making products in a responsible manner and are active supporters of many great environmental causes and to cap it all off, the owner, Yvon Chouinard, is a fine flyfisherman.
Watershed
Dry Bags - These wonderful dry bags come in a variety of sizes.
Plenty of room for everything you'll ever need and they come in bright
colors so its harder to lose them! I wouldn't take a float trip without
them. In fact, I won't take any trip without them.
Lan
Airlines - Direct flights from Miami and one-stops
from Los Angeles combined with great service make LAN our favorite
way to get to Chile and Argentina.
