Short. Fast. Deadly Accurate.

Modern fly lines wildly in taper and grain weight, and the Exocett 88 series embraces that fact with clearly labeled grain targets for every model. That attention to detail translates into rods that load correctly, track cleanly, and deliver tight loops across a wide range of distances. In this review, we break down how each Exocett 88 model casts, which lines pair best, and where each rod truly shines on the water.

Estancia De Los Rios Lodge

Explore Untouched Waters in Patagonia

Estancia De Los Ríos offers one of Patagonia’s most diverse and lightly pressured private trout fisheries, spread across more than 60 miles of rivers, spring creeks, and lakes within a vast 400,000-acre working ranch. Fishing days range from wading intimate freestones and meadow creeks to exploring alpine lakes, often without seeing another angler. Combined with warm Chilean hospitality, excellent food, and a true sense of place, it’s a program that consistently resonates with anglers looking for something genuine and unhurried.

Availability for the 2026 season is becoming limited, with a small number of prime summer and fall weeks still open. These dates tend to fill quickly, especially for anglers seeking private water, flexible fishing options, and a quieter Patagonia experience.
