Metida en el bosque del centro-sur fueguino, la Laguna Negra hace honor a su nombre con aguas oscuras y quietas, enmarcada por lengas y turba, un ambiente pequeño y recogido donde viven trucha arcoíris y marrón.
Se pesca sobre todo de costa, con spinning liviano ajustado a las orillas cortas, y con mosca desde la orilla o vadeando con cuidado, alternando streamers a media agua con ninfas cuando la trucha anda desconfiada. En términos generales, el verano y el comienzo del otoño dan la mejor acción, y las primeras luces del día suelen ser el momento. El viento del sur pega parejo, así que conviene rodear la laguna buscando el reparo del bosque. Un rincón íntimo, de aguas negras y marco boscoso, para pescar sin apuro.

Fly:
For trophy specimens (5-10+ kg at the Strobel): step up the power—medium/medium-heavy spinning with 15-20 lb braid and a robust fluoro leader, or a 7/8 fly outfit—because these are fish with strength and runs far superior to the average trout.
In every case: a well-adjusted drag, sharp hooks (barbless if you are going to release), and a rubber net to handle the fish with the least possible harm.
