of the most prestine fly fishing areas in the world left, and any fly fishing visitors should exercise great care to ensure this
classical fly fishing destination is preserved for generations to come.

Many of the pools can be fished by wading and bank casting, while others are better fished from an achored boat moved through the pools gradually.
