Marcos was born in Bariloche. When he was five, he and his family moved to Buenos Aires where he completed his primary and secondary education. While working as an Agronomy technician in Buenos Aires, Marcos dreamed of returning to Patagonia. He eventually found his way to Bariloche to study Aquaculture, where, fortunately for us, he discovered fly fishing. Becoming a professional fishing guide in 2007, Marcos has since dedicated his life to guiding and fly fishing.

Marcos’ guiding career began in Nahuel Huapi National Park, the big beautiful park near Bariloche. He has since guided in many different places: across Patagonia for trout, Tierra del Fuego for sea run browns, and in the jungles of the Brazilian Amazon for peacock bass, Arapaima, and Vampire fish. His diverse experiences have given Marcos a spirit of adventure and adaptability which create his unique guiding style and understanding of all that goes into a good day of fishing.

When he’s not guiding, you can find Marcos focusing his camera on wildlife, people, or landscapes. He’s also a woodworker and builder of wooden boats.
