Reeling in Serenity is thrilled to again offer a trip to fish for trout in the legendary waters of Chile, generously donated by our friends Karina and Pancho of Chile Trout. They have saved one week of fly fishing in their late 2026 and early 2027 season: November 22-28. To allow a bidder to adequately plan travel to Chile in November we have created this one-item auction. Bidding will open May 10 and close on May 20. Value is $6,190 and our minimum opening bid is $3500. Here are details:

We are thrilled to offer this seven-day six-night all inclusive stay with Chile Trout Patagonia, based at Lago Frío in Chilean Patagonia. They fish the rivers and lakes of Coyhaique area for 5 full days testing anglers' skills against the fabled Patagonian Brown Trout on some of the finest waters in Patagonia, all of them located within 2 hours drive from the Lodge. ChileTrout is a family run company and a full service, world-class fly fishing operation with over 20 years of experience. All of their programs include ground transportation, a bilingual guide, all meals and alcoholic beverages, lodge selection, and fishing licenses. However, it does not cover fishing equipment, flies, gratuities, or any expenses before arriving in Balmaceda. The winner is responsible for transportation to Balmaceda, Chile. Please note that this stay is from November 22nd through November 28th. Because of their very limited availability and timeframe of this week in late November, we strongly request no cancellations in consideration of Chile Trout's generous donation. 

The stay is for one angler.

You can find more information here: https://chiletrout.com/ There are two very informative videos to view as well: From The New Fly Fisher https://youtu.be/8XBL5ddUYxQ?si=fJ20NYs9Ht5Q8Up5 And this is the video on their website: https://chiletrout.com/about/#we-are

We know that not everyone will be able to bid on an item with a single week of availability. We hope that you will consider booking with Chile Trout outside of the auction. Karina and Pancho are incredibly generous and have been so supportive of Reeling in Serenity. We are beyond grateful for their kindness. If you have ever had the opportunity to speak with them at one of the stops of the Fly Fishing Show you know what special people they are.

Please get your bids in early and bid to win!

Reeling in Serenity celebrates life free from addiction by embracing nature and the spiritual connection that fly fishing has brought so many.

We do this through free fly fishing retreats that are open to those  who have chosen to live their personal truth. We also serve as a safe space and resource for the sober fly angler who is doing the work one day at a time.
