Testimonials
I just want to say thanks for everything! The trip truly was the trip of a lifetime. Oscar would always say he has good news and he has bad news, well I've got good new and bad news. The good news is the trip exceeded our expectations; the bad news is it was so good it would be impossible to ever repeat. Got our trip DVD last week. Thanks a lot! It was a great trip and it's nice to have the DVD as a memory. The trip was a real eye opening experience for my son, so much so that he changed his college major to Spanish and International Business. He's already planning on a semester abroad in Argentina!

I hope you enjoy the pictures, because I know I sure enjoyed my trip to
Argentina and my duck hunting experience there. I really am appreciative of the opportunity that you gave me and I will recommend fly fishing patagonia to anyone who plans on making a trip down south.

"My experience in Patagonia with you and then fishing for Dorado in the north is incredible. I have traveled the world for years and this trip is truly world-class."
-John Wilson, San Francisco, CA
Their planning is meticulous and their enthusiasm is infectious.

Was a great trip, everything was out standing. The staff, both at La Pelada and Wing Shooting Argentina, were just fabulous, Great people to work with. The birds were fun and we had a great time even though my brother out shot me.

Hi Justi!
I just wanted to thank you once again for being such a fun "camp director"! I know that isn't your title but when we left for home, it was like leaving camp and all the friends you made. You did a fantastic job of pleasing everyone and I just wanted to reiterate my pleasure. If you are ever in California or Montana, please give us a call and we would love to host you. Tell Okie "howdy" for me too! He's a great guy and a lot of fun!
Fondly,
Diane Travis, San Francisco, CA.
This was the best trip I’ve ever been on, and I can tell you right now, I’m coming back and when I do I am going to buy one of Lady’s puppies. I love that dog.

I can't speak to the hunting at La Pelada as I was there for the fishing. But I'm itching to go back for a cast and blast. So whether it's a prime hunting area or not (I believe it is)...I'm not going to be much help there.
However, I can recommend Justi and the rest of the Wing Shooting Argentina folks HIGHLY. I've had the privilege to travel on some amazing fishing trips...but for me, it's all about the relationships that are fostered on the trip. Some guides you go with for the day and have a marginal time. Some you enjoy for the week. And some trips you leave with actual friendships. These guys are in the latter category. And it applies not only to Justi...but also the fishing/hunting guides at La Pelada. Really good folks and I was genuinely sad to leave.
One thing that I noticed in Argentina is how hard the guides work. They truly love what they do and bust butt to make it happen. That would be true for both fishing and hunting as several of the guides are the same.
But at the end of the day, there is an underlying sense of trust I have in WSA. They are passionate about their work and their client's experience on the trip. So you'd be in very good hands.
As for the lodge...it basically kicks ass. I'm not into fancy schmancy lodges. This place struck a nice balance between comfort and being a real, working estancia.
You're making me want to go back. You might see me there in June!
If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to give me a shout.

Hi Justi,
Jill and I showed our pics to some friends (one who has picked up fly fishing in the last year) and are starting to talk about another trip where we can make it to the Patagonia part we missed. Jill and I were depressed that we missed the second half, We had a great time with great friends. Jill said it was the best trip she ever had! Looking forward to the next one. Maybe tack on some wine tasting? Please feel free to use Jill and I as references. You and Oscar do a first rate job and we won't make a trip back without talking to you. Thanks all for the great time!
