Fortunately for us, it gets overlooked by foreigners and is almost entirely unknown to the hordes of trekkers (myself included) who assumed hiking the world-famous Torres del Paine and El Chalten was synonymous with having gone to Patagonia. We didnt have much to do in Coyhaique beyond acquiring lighters and fuel canisters, which required a patchwork of Spanish and help from a pair of friendly carabineros (the national police force)

This is the way I like to do it, others may have a different approach

The spines used for comb binding are available in diameters that range from 1/4" to 2"

But they were persistent and asked if they could show us a rod or two and we agreed

Then you fine tune for casting without making the spool drag too hard
