Two fishermen wade along the Malleo River in front of Lanin volcano in Junin De Los Andes, Neuquen Province, some 1,600 kilometers from Buenos Aires, Argentina, April 29, 2006. More than 40,000 permits for fly fishing were issued in the recent season in Neuquen province alone, where the season runs from November until the end of May. Patagonia is one of the biggest and emptiest places on Earth _ boosting the attraction for fly fishermen weary of crowded rivers in densely populated areas of North America and Europe.
