The Gallegos River is a low-gradient, meandering waterway that begins at the confluence of the Rubens and Penitentes Rivers, stretching approximately 112 miles before flowing into the Atlantic Ocean. Renowned worldwide as a premier Brown Trout fishery, the Gallegos attracts anglers from all corners of the globe seeking the thrill of catching these powerful and often trophy-sized trout, frequently exceeding 20 pounds.

At Karku, we fish in more than 40 carefully selected, named pools along the river, each offering unique challenges and rewarding possibilities for fly anglers.

With its ever-changing light, shifting winds, and untouched Patagonian landscape, the Gallegos is more than a river — it’s a living classroom for fly fishers. Every bend presents a new lesson in reading the stream, mastering the cast, and connecting with nature in its purest form.
