Having been in the industry for years and having fly fished in many beautiful places in the world we have come to acknowledge what is required from the more discerning fly fishermen and women throughout the world to make every day as memorable as possible from the fishing right through to smaller details. Conversely we’ve taught loads of beginners and family groups to cast a fly for the first time, and helped them catch their first ever trout.

We want you to enjoy every aspect of the day’s fishing – that’s our job!

If you’re having a bad day casting, getting knots, missing strikes etc you won’t ever feel intimidated, we’re gonna smile with you and get you going again, there’s always another chance round the corner.

We will take care that your lunch breaks and tea breaks are a relaxed and enjoyable aspect of the day, we won’t be pacing the bank to rush your break and enjoyment of the moment.

We have, as you can see from our fishing gallery, a huge array of waters that will give some of the most varied opportunities possible fly fishing in New Zealand. You can learn more about all the different types of waters we fish across the central North Island of NZ in our Taupo fishing guide.

We will put a package together that not only suits your wishes but also will take into account your skill levels. If you only have one day in the region, we can give you an amazing experience trout fishing from Turangi or Taupo.
