Río Serrano

Flowing through Región de Magallanes y de la Antártica Chilena, Chile, Río Serrano is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Río Serrano hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Río Serrano can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.
