Experienced fly fishing guides …

With over ten years in the trout guiding business we have come to learn that almost all anglers seek something a little different while on their flyfishing vacation.  Whether its chasing our highly prized back country large trophy Browns and Rainbows or simply just enjoying great back country fly-fishing in small to medium free stone rivers, we know all too well the importance and rewards of a well planned and executed fly-fishing itinerary,  placing the client with the right guide in a great location with the best accommodation to suit your budget is what we specialize in.

In the heart of the South Island …

Our main flyfishing operations are carried out in the heart of New Zealand’s South Island back country, its the head water streams in these vast valley systems that offer some of the clearest water in the world, the combination of these free stone streams, large trophy trout,  and lush native forest backdrops that set the scene for the ultimate flyfishing experience.

Our stunning scenery, and fishing to sighted fish …

One of the more talked about moments on a standard guiding day is not only about the stunning scenery but more important is the fact we are fishing to sighted fish and the guides ability to see fish among the confusion of rocks and ripples this is truly the pinnacle of sight, dry fly trout fishing.
