The locals say it is all due to the food source, but I think the recipe is a little more complex than that. I've heard some say water temps and mineral/nutrient content play a role.

I've read a number of places that the rainbows transported to Argentina, Strobel included, came from the McCloud in, CA.

This book has some good background in addition to the usual where, when, what info:





Interesting? Thanks.

I would love to swing some flies on the Rio Santa Cruz for those Atlantic ocean run rainbows!!!!!!!! Insanely windy like the rest of the area down there. Huge river(makes the skagit look like a crick) glaceir feed so has some color most of the time, some day.

Can't wait to see a report and photos as I looked at a trip down there years ago along with a Kamchatka Peninsula trip for large Chinook (50-60 #) at the same time too! Still on the back burner but must make it someday soon! Not getting any younger frown
