Just a wonderful place in the world. They were focused on plying the few big fish, we were loving the fun fish we could sight, the scenery, the birds 😍❤️🤩

Perfect! Love the Blanco Valley experience 😊

Great to hear. Always thinking of the trout first is a big part of what we do.

We're glad you found value in what we created here:) The location of this place is incredible and offered so much beauty for us to film.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one... connected to it. That's great to hear 😊 We all need our mental and spiritual escapes and experiences. This was a tremendously wonderful experience that we're happy to have represented in our videos 😊

We're glad this meant so much to you. A lot of effort went into the creation if it. Thanks for watching.

Hopefully some day that comes to fruition for you!

That's perfect to hear and why we share! Amazing location & experience in the world! 😊🍻

Glad you enjoyed it - a great life experience 😊

when we return to Patagonia it will be the Argentinian side once again. We loved our time there in 2019 and hope to get on a road tour for ourselves in 2024 or 2025 :)

@@jensenflyfishing For that date the fishing in the Paraná river is going to be incredible. have it as an option. Golden dorados, pacu, surubi, pira pita, many hunting species

@@jensenflyfishing I left you a message on Instagram

A great location to disappear to, especially in the right weather 😊 And definitely enjoyed Monte's company and appreciation of us spending a day chucao hunting, not many guides appreciate the value of that in life. He was one.

when you get in touch with what you can do with the rod, what it does to the leader and how that leader finesses flies "just so", that wiggle shines! :) Thank you and glad you enjoyed it. Dave

A stunning location and one we hope continues as a throwback to how the planet was. But, sadly, the encroachment on that section of private reserve is coming quickly.

Isn't it incredible? It was honestly WAAY to much sensory overload to put into a video. Lodge owner wanted a snapshot video.... well... there's just too much value in experiences and locations like this one. 😊

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it 😊

That was a collection of videos to be sure. The whole effort was an insane amount of content gathered from a magical location on the planet. Hopefully it never changes but development is coming and not too far away, so here's hoping...

thank you - loved this trip :)

Hi Bill. Thank you for watching our videos and taking the time to offer thoughtful feedback. Honestly it feels as though we are just now stepping into the maturity of where we're supposed to be. It takes an incredible amount of time to edit a video like this - about 8 x 16hr days after fishing a week. There is really very little in the fly fishing industry to support efforts like this financially and those opportunities most often require selling out to the financiers. We have a good relationship with Orvis that helps offset some of our costs but nothing comes close to an income, except for our viewers' support through our membership page at Patreon which is outlined at our www.jensenflyfishing.com website. We truly NEED the ongoing support of the fly fishing community in order to continue doing what we are doing, hence why we had to begin our Patreon 10 months back. All our efforts are viewer supported as KZfaq income is low and fleetingly unpredictable. Our new series as launched on Saturday is "How We Do It" and dives into the full picture of immersion into sense of place/location while blending how we fly fish, how we film, what these moments mean to us. Tying in cultural aspects, guide relationships, etc will be a part of this as the support of our efforts expand to allow additional travel - again, travel to fish with a guide either requires a lodge or outfitter paying our travel/accommodation or we have to jump through the full process of working with Tourism boards in competition with various media companies for limited funding all the while producing pop-culture popular content based on the algorithms instead of where our passions lie in order to gain views & likes to substantiate Tourism $ as they look at carte-blanche #s rather than the quality of viewer. All the while that process is time consuming and takes away from doing and enjoying what we love - being on the water. It's all incredibly limiting and why we began Patreon - we hope that people understand that sharing as we do with the new series and the 60 to 90 minute durations and all the value inset are worth supporting. Thank you for the thoughtful reply. Dave & Amelia.

BTW the pack horse ride over the Andes was crazy 😵‍💫

We probably did in the exact same little pockets and buckets. Those fish have to be long lived and recaptures highly likely 😊

100% truth there!

Happy new year! May 23 be great!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! 😊🍻

So glad to hear that you enjoyed this video. There was so much amazing footage, so much incredible country to immerse into. Happy new year and best for 2023! 😊

Thanks for your appreciation and support. 🥰

This is a beautiful location... but of course so is NZ as you get here 😊🍻🥰

Always love reading how differently 8B people see things 😊🍻

Thanks

Thank you for sharing your appreciation of our work and welcome to our channel! We hope you enjoy all that we have to share here.

That horseback ride! Hola man... you did well! You will love the new lodge. It's a ways from completion and we missed out but we're able to walk through its shell and the views from the dining/lounge area are world class. You'll love your trip for sure. 🙃🥰

Doesn't it? Exactly that one. Except the NZ one has by far the superior fishing engagement and trout :)

It always means something to us to know that a video really connects well with the odd person or two. Thanks for watching and sharing this.

:) Thank you - it is Amelia & myself (Dave) filming through this amazing trip. It's an incredible location with great fishing for mostly gorgeous browns. The hard part was deciding what footage to cut from 100hrs of filming! :)

Wonderfully so on a private reach of property along a wild, massive river. As a Canadian it was wonderful to visit, to enjoy immersion in different wilds :) We loved the scenery, the bird life, the nalca and beyond. Being a guest of a commercial operation to represent their business, it is sometimes difficult to get to know more of the people beyond the face of business and what they want you to see, who they want you to be and do. We absolutely loved our time with Monte, the work of Ande in constructing the location & facilities, the welcoming spirit of Tomi :)

:) this was a great experience - such a wonderful location to catch so many browns despite how few medium to bigger fish showed :)

There was a lot for sure. 6x batteries a day @ about 28min each on the Mavic Air 2 on that one (it flew away this year tho).

Amazing really, isn't it? 😊

We plan to travel from Maine to your neck of the woods to target the Bow and Ram River’s once I retire in a couple years.

@@biggarfish be sure to!

Loved the experience 😊🍻

Sorry, we edited this so long ago it isn't present in our minds. It is very familiar isn't it? Very cinematic piece, that. :)

Hi and good to hear you enjoyed this video. Sorry, this was edited 18 months ago and hard to recall what track.

She kind of pendulums on the idea...

Best place to!

We don't know much either but as far as we know they are. It's quite the trail and the horses definitely get a work out and have to find their footing.

Hiya - NZ is a different flavour vs Coyhaique... fewer fish and far bigger avg sizes. It's a biomass distribution - population dynamics thing. Check out nzfishing.com as well as heaps of info on Nz fish & game as well as the nz guide association website! 😊🍻

You get one more misogynist comment before being blocked. Have a look at our IG & FB feed... 'she' would out fish you in a blink of an eye.

We used 5 wt's, but you need a rod that works well for you in wind. Being able to accurately hit the spots while moving along pretty quickly in a boat is important as you're often in big water that flows at quite a pace and they can only slow down those big cataracts down so much. Hope that helps!

@@jensenflyfishing thank you! I didn’t want to spend more money on another rod Lol!!

Suspect the chopper replacement might save that. It's private property access so it'll be up to the owners... but yeah

The website is at this address www.riverofdreamsbasecamp.com/ be sure to go for the full experience as the fishing comes and goes with hot dry conditions or extremely wet - one is great and the other not. But the experience of the location is incredible 😊🍻

Hello, sorry we do not guide but there are plenty of guides in various regions that can for you that offer great trips. 😊🍻

Just Google river of dreams base camp, Chile, through magic waters Patagonia. 😊🍻

Gorgeous location 🥰

Us too. But, different country and as guests of the lodge there to share it all, all we can do is share what's there.

Our thoughts too. Life's a little rougher in some areas.

Again, misogynist commentary. Consider who you are talking to.

Thank you! Cheers!
