PATAGONIAN FLY FISHING Quiero contarles quien
es Carlos Trisciuzzi o mayormente conocido por Carlitos.
Años mas tarde conocería a
Gines Gomariz y con el empecé a ser mas profesional dado que el Sr. Gines
venia guiando en nuestros ríos por varios años. Con el tuve la suerte de
atar moscas en forma comercial y a su ves atender el Fly Shop de su
propiedad, el cual para los 70 era algo muy lindo, dado que no tan solo se
vendían todos los artículos para la Pesca sino que teníamos todos los
artículos para la caza o sea que para el Outdoor era un paraíso. En los 70
tuve el orgullo de conocer al MAESTRO Alan Frazer con el cual compartiría
varios años aprendiendo y perfeccionando la técnica de atar moscas.

PATAGONIAN FLY FISHING
PATAGONIAN FLY FISHING I was with my Grandmother Moraima, when I was no more than 5 years old, when I dropped my first lure into the Rio Chimehuin, using a “Latita,” a cheap fishing rig, common in Patagonia. It was no more than a tin can and some nylon line and a “Voladora” spinner, a far cry from the fly rod techniques of today. My first catch was a stick from the bottom, but my second was my first rainbow trout from the Chimehuin. I thought it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen – the unforgettable colors as it glistened in the sun, the strength of the fish in my hand, the power and speed as I released it. From that moment, trout and I became friends forever. I was 12 when my mother persuaded her friend, Dona Elena Julian, owner of the legendary Hostería Chimehuin, to hire me to cut the grass. The Hostería Chimehuin was the most famous fly fishing hostel in Argentina and the destination for fly fishing experts from all over the world – people like Joe Brooks, Mel Kreiger, Billy Pate, Bebe Anchorena, Eliseo Fernandez, Chiche Arazena, Pedro Guisazola, and many more. Dona Elena asked me if I was interested in fishing because there were so many tourists who wanted to know where to fish and how to catch them. There would be a need for guides. I decided right then I would follow her advice and become a professional fishing guide. I listened carefully to her and the guests at the Hostería and my learning began. My apprenticeship was a gift from the gods. I managed to get a job working in the fly shop of Gines Gomariz, legendary pioneer in Argentine fly-fishing, guide and fly tier extraordinary. He taught me to tie flies, not only for myself, but commercially as well. The shop was a paradise for me, a youngster eager to learn the fly fisher’s art.
Then in 197_ I met El Maestro Allan Fraser, the man from Scotland who made Junin his home. With him I spent many years learning and perfecting the technique of tying flies, and was able to tie with the legends of the art. I also learned my first English words from Sr. Allan so I could, as he would say,” better serve my clients.” Who could have had more distinguished teachers? How many countless times I walked the shores of our waters, the Chimehuín, Malleo, Colloncurá, Caleufú, Curruhue, Aluminé rivers, and our famous lakes Huechulafquen, Paimun, Tromen and so many, many more. And I still remember Dona Elena’s words to me, “Carlitos, be kind, attentive, and respectful of your clients.” I still reside in Junin where I grew up, with my beautiful family, my wife Viviana, and my sons Carlos Alberto (17), Lucas (12), and Augustin (5). This is where I base my business. I invite you to share with me my passion, my love of these waters and their magnificent trout, and the history and lore of my beloved Patagonia. I invite you to come to my little town of Junin de los Andes, “The fly-fishing Capital of Argentina.”
