Monster Chinook (King) Salmon fly fishing on the Caterina River in Argentina, these fish grow to over record size, with many already been caught over 90lb on the fly. Every year Chinook Salmon go up the Caterina River from the Atlantic Ocean, crossing the whole Santa Cruz river and then the Argentinian Lake (the biggest in the country) to arrive at these waters. This journey ensures that only the strongest fish arrive at this destination and over the years the strain of these fish have produced some of the toughest Kings / Chinook to be found anywhere in the world. Prepare to be amazed at the size of these fish and the sheer power these big fish have.

One of the last few places to catch giant fish...
I love the place
They were actually introduced in 1985 there’s a river where I live that gets that same strain naturally they can exceed 60 pounds but it’s very rare now
Sexta estou chegando 13/3/2020 para pegar esses peixes lindos
Are you still looking at booking up a trip?
Need to take some of these fish and plant into the Columbia and Kenai Rivers to get back some of the lost June Hogs genetics,
aguante argentina carajo
A strong hold for a threatened spices, magnificent, protect those fish by any means. I hear China has put themselves in and around those locations, by giving 50 billion to influence there control. Dont let them destroy those rivers and fisheries.
Its such a shame
que tremendo bicho!!!!!!!
The music overwhelms the action.
+mick mueller Sorry you feel that Mick, it was only a trailer as we are out there filming for real in Feb
What Camera did you guys shoot those photos with in the video?! they are so crisp and sharp! I would kill for a camera that would let me shoot like that!
It truly is an epic camera. I shall ask our guides what they use 👍
What the hell do they eat in Jurasick lake? They are similar to what we call gerrard rainbows in BC as they reach this size. Do these fish have a short lifespan of about 8 years or so?
Marc MacIntyre These fish are not from Jurassic Lake as they are all Rainbows these King Salmon buddy.
Marc MacIntyre we have these in Alaska...they eat in the ocean that's how they get big also king salmon can be 3,4,5and 6 salt fish these are most like!y 5 or 6 salt fish, meaning they spend that long at sea.
I know. I have fished salmon all my life. I was just impressed with their size.
he got some great fishing trips sportquest even the fishing trips brochures put most fishing book to shame total quality peter is doing right most are trips seem to booked year in advance with returning anglers so would i be if got a few kings this size on the line get your tackle really tested one day i hope it be me with the rod bent
Mark
Thank you very very much for your kind words... people are going to think we paid you for those comments :)
You must come and enjoy this one day it is an amazing trip in such a special place... almost magical.
Regards Peter
Hi peter your fishing videos speak for themself with out me doing it its a fly fisher dreams that brochures of yours i do hope to take a trip with you some day i was thinking about galua one as i really dont think many places can match that on price but truth be told any of fishing trips in that brochure them would be a trip of a life time
Mark Turnbull It will be a pleasure to have you with us oneway my friend
music is awful
+Michael Spencer Personal choice I suppose
I had no idea Chinook were in that area.
so they planted these non native species here?
that was in Caterina river...
Yes sure was
We have dealt with the same issue on the west coast Atlantic salmon escaping and our fisheries said they would not attempt to spawn. They have been seen in pairs and there is a catch and kill order for them I believe.
+Marc MacIntyre Not where we go its all catch and release :)
Fuck fish hatcheries killing our wild fishes with their continously "accidental escaping fishes"....
Sorry, i know it works well there, but in Sweden it is not a pleasant surprise when fishes escapes the cages and bring their lethal bacteria into the very few wild populations we still got :/
Marc MacIntyre stop fish farming by only buying wild caught Alaskan salmon!
Sam, I live in BC
Why would I buy Alaska fish when I can support BC fisherman. Like you I refuse to support the fish farms
Damn, that is a well kept secret. I am from the west coast of Canada originally actually. i take it they do not occur naturally. Nice fish though. Are you using big dark buggers to irritate them?
Marc MacIntyre Hi Marc, yes they are all natural fish it just took many years before people realised there came that far inland. Great new fishery you should come join us on a trip.
Rgds Peter
Sportquest Holidays It does not surprise me they go that far inland as the chinook in BC swim hundreds of miles inland. I take it the salmon are an introduced species and not natural. Do you guys drift egg patterns under them to target trout? Trout will swim under them and then bump the females to knock some eggs loose. I imagine fry patterns are quite good in the spring.
Marc MacIntyre Chinooks are not native to South America Marc however they were stocked there in the 1930's and have flourished in the glacial fed rivers perfect for salmonid spawning. To this day there are stable spawning runs in several Patagonian rivers.
Marc MacIntyre That is really interesting actually. I did not know they had done so that far back.
Its amazing really, Argentina first received Brown Trout in 1904 and have since had self sustaining sea run and river based populations.
Good beautiful fishing video could you tell me what equipment do you use? in advance thank you very much, I remain attentive from Temuco Chile
Jorge
Basically they are spey rods 13 ft long, then we use skagit lines with heavy sing tips as we need to the flies down quickly.
How much to fish please
Edith Turbull you can find out all the details, itinerary, prices etc on this link. www.sportquestholidays.com/rio-caterina-king-salmon-argentina/tour-overview.html
Hope it helps

You should try Bass fishing in America
Bass fishing Lame! watch the googan squad for bass..all jonb likes is bass..boring..this is what men catch...kids catch bass..lol
lol thats so true but john b's videos are really good quality
It pains me to see the kings handled so poorly. They should remain in the water for your trophy shots!
That is fair enough and everyone has their own opinions which is also fair. Keep watching and keep catching
Good video ruined by music as usual ! .
Glad you liked the video, yes music is a matter of love or hate everyone is different.
@@SportquestHolidaysDestinations 90% of people don't want it, they would rather listen to the action and what's going on around it ! .
Interesting they don’t have the black mouths, typical of west coast chinook...
Some have the black mouth some only have a pale mouth... but yes it is strange Rgds Peter
someone is not king salmon,someone is dog salmon
No its a King Salmon also known as a Chinook Salmon. A dog salmon is a Chum Salmon different fish my friend...
Dumbest music choice
Probably will be an ecological disaster someday
Doesn't seem to be as there are no indigenous species in the river they are affecting.
Typical rich geeks with their brand new gear don't even know how to hold a fish!
I thinks thats a little rude and unfair don't you
If I was making the same money as you do from them I say the same thing but they are still geeks and you're a sellout !
Everything isn't about money, dude. And to be honest you sound a tad jelly...
You probably didnt work hard enough to enjoy these then, not that I can afford either but hey, they did what I should have done when I was a kid.. it's too late. Cant hate now but take that in vicariously. More power to these guys. Atleast this isnt a video about poaching a wild elephant or a rhino..
