Good stuff for sure. One thing ill add, with the waders, me coming from alaska i dont like the super thick heavy waders, even breathable. I prefer the lightweight waders for sure. It can get pretty hot down there. If its a wet day then layer up underneath.
Do not have much experience transporting professional camera gear down there, but packing everything in your most rugged cases and checking them for the flight is probably the best way to go.
No issues yet, at least not with our crew or travel customers. Investing in a great carry-on rod/reel case can help add a little peace of mind. Definitely feel your pain though - the gear worries always seem to make those international flights feel even longer!
Great video, thank you for the comprehensive input
Thanks for watching!

Excellent point and great tip! Thanks for watching!
Don’t forget plenty of USD for guide/host tips if in Argentina!
Good stuff Blake!
You forgot the ibuprofen and good sucks. Just did two weeks in Chile. Awesome trip.
Because they dont have ibuprofen there?
@@perrykomick9478 yes, we have
Good socks are an absolute must, for sure!
How do you bring your camera/video gear?

not really, they do have, but since you are in the middle of nowhere, why not to have some.
I just got back from Patagonia and checked my gear. Have you had any issues with carrying your rods and reels on? I worried about them the whole time.
