Since 1990 our team has provided iconic fly fishing trips to New Zealand. Where our team differentiates is in our ability to provide you with a comprehensive itinerary in New Zealand- incorporating a broad range of activities and experiences to enhance your time on the river.

Fly Fishing in New Zealand

Interested in casting to trophy trout across diverse landscapes and then reeling in geothermal wonders, towering glaciers, epic hikes, and beautiful wineries? New Zealand is a perfect gateway to your adventure. In fact we have an entire website dedicated to fly fishing New Zealand!

Our team will work with you to craft an itinerary in which fishing is a launchpad to exploring the kaleidoscope of other experiences waiting beyond the cast.

Whether staying in a lodge or fishing with a guide while friends and family enjoy a day-hike… this does not need to be just a fishing trip; it’s can be a full-fledged New Zealand experience!

Fly Fishing Lodges

Whether you crave rustic charm or five-star pampering, fly fishing lodges cater to both ends of the spectrum. Nestled in prime fishing grounds, they offer not just top-notch access to the water, but also a communal haven for anglers to swap stories and forge friendships over delicious meals. It’s the perfect blend of piscatorial pursuit and shared passion, ensuring your adventure resonates long after the last cast.

Let our team seamlessly work in time at a lodge while accounting for all of the other aspects that can make a good time in New Zealand a great one!

Independent Guides

Witnessing the exhilaration of landing a trophy is why we do this, and we want you to experience it too. Our expertise is providing you with an itinerary that combines expert guiding and still includes memorable excursions to ensure your New Zealand adventure exceeds all expectations.

Jill R. joined three generations of family at a #luxuryfishinglodge and snagged this trout while on the river with relatives. The family that fishes together clearly has the most fun together! @poronuinz #flyfishing #flyfishnz #fishingnewzealand #newzealandflyfishing #flyfishinglife #travelnewzealand @bestofnz_travel #familytravel
