EXPERIENCE OVERVIEW

ELEVEN ANGLING

From the glacier-carved valleys in Iceland and the countless trout streams in Colorado to the globally renowned fisheries of New Zealand and Chile, Eleven’s global portfolio of angling experiences is second to none. We’ve scoured the globe for unique places that deliver the most riveting fly fishing opportunities, then created the kind of intricately planned itineraries and wellappointed lodging that distinguish us from other leaders in the angling world.

In these far-flung lodges, chalets, and cabins, we customize adventures that revolve around the fishing, yet all the while are characterized by personalized touches of service and detail. Expect chef-prepared meals at riverside outposts, comfort-forward accommodations saturated in cultural authenticity, and guided activities tailor-made for those who prefer to explore the outdoors by foot and bike.

Our guides are the cornerstone of your time with us— count on them to know every riffle, run, and pool in the water; every trail and lookout point on land; and every insider tip for experiencing the area like a long- time local. No matter your skill level, our Experience Team lives and breathes to make your time on and off the water truly unforgettable.

Headquartered in Crested Butte, Colorado, Eleven represents a new standard in experiential travel. We quench a thirst for unprecedented adventures, authentic connections with down-toearth guides, and deeply personalized holidays for the discerning traveler.

OFF THE BEATEN PATH

At the root of our identity is the belief that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice the comforts of home in order to experience some of the world’s most beautiful landscapes and incredible angling adventures. Our team has scoured the globe for destinations that touch new frontiers, that are sometimes difficult to reach, and yet on arrival you can’t imagine not being there. Although our properties are far from the mainstream, they are custom designed to ensure you have access to all of the amenities you should - unique hang spaces, comfortable guest rooms and more.

CUSTOM TAILORED + ALL INCLUSIVE

We believe your trip should be about you. That means that no trip is ever the same. From the day we first talk with you, our Experience Teams take your input and begin planning your dream itinerary. Organizing travel logistics, taking note of preferences, adding non-angling activities, and of course, talking about the fishing, is all part of the deal. We want you to experience the most out of your trip without feeling nickel-and-dimed. As a result, most of our stays are largely all-inclusive – meaning that your professional guides, adventure activities, most meals, house alcohol and local transportation are included.

ELEVEN GUIDE TEAM

At the core of the experience is the Guide Team. Our international group of highly trained angling experts makes the experience. They look forward to meeting you, learning your goals, and helping you improve. Their enthusiasm in sharing their native resources and local culture is infectious. It’s what sets Eleven apart. Our guides live and breathe fishing. They thrive on getting to know you and seeing your excitement while on the hunt for your favorite fish. If really getting after it on some of the best water in the world sounds exciting, our cast of guides will safely lead you to unforgettable experiences.

BEST DAY EVER POLICY

This is important. Unlike other lodges or guide operations, we don’t acknowledge “down days” or “weather days.” There are no rain checks. We are always armed and amped to improvise and be creative. If we can’t fish the flats, we’ll fish the protected creeks and enjoy a gourmet lunch. If a river turns off-color, we’ll take you to one that’s clear. If we just can’t make another cast, we’ll turn to snorkeling or paddle boarding, or you can just kick-back and enjoy the view. You came to have a once-in-alifetime experience, and that’s what you’ll get.

ADVENTURES FOR ALL

There is not a “right” or a “wrong” way to experience an Eleven Fishing Destination. If you’re a die-hard angler who wants to fish dawn to dusk, we’ve got you covered. If you’re looking to fish a half day, or work on your casting skills with your guide, all good. Groups of guys, couples, women only, families with multiple generations? You’re in the right place. Think you want to try bonefishing or trout fishing for the first time? Our guides can’t wait to teach you how. We’re here to design and deliver a trip that exceeds your expectations.

A REAL CONNECTION

At the end of the day, we strive to create memories that you, your family and friends can share for a lifetime. We believe that connections and relationships that our guests foster amongst themselves, with our guides and crew, and with the natural environments they share, are the most valuable intangibles in the world. Let’s get started.

FISHING WITH MARTÍN PESCADOR WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Eleven’s Martín Pescador guide team will always have you on the rivers and lakes that are fishing best at the time of your trip. The guides can also be flexible during your trip and customize each day to provide the fishing experiences you enjoy most.

HOW BIG ARE THE TROUT?

The region’s trout average 14 to 18 inches, with fish between 18 and 22 inches caught by anglers often. Even larger trout are not uncommon.

WHAT RIVERS AND LAKES WILL I HAVE ACCESS TO?

There are literally too many to name each and every one. However, the main systems that anglers can expect to fish are Río and Lago Yelcho, Río Futaleufú, Río and Lago Rosselot, Río Figueroa and Río Pico along with other private lakes and various smaller river systems.

HOW DO WE ACCESS THESE REMOTE FISHERIES?

A large selection of boats, including lake boats, jet boats, rafts, and catarafts, allow us to always utilize the best platform for the specific fishery. Our fleet of trucks and trailers transports guests quickly to put ins, while methods like stashing and leaving boats in certain areas allow us to access hard-to-reach stretches.Though the area is rugged, we are always willing to put our equipment to the test in order to get anglers to the best locations.
