We had a great day of Dian with The New Zealand Fly Fishing Company. Roy was very helpful as we put together the trip and Pete, our guide was extremely helpful and flexible in making the day a success! He picked us up at our lodge and got us all created up. He put us on the fish and we caught some great ones! I highly recommend this outfit in the Taupo area!

Our guide Pete, with the New Zealand Flyfishing Company, was incredible! We had the best time on the local rivers catching massive Rainbow Trout. Pete was a champ, despite the frigid 0 degree temperatures. We were able to get some practice casting in, find a stream away from the crowds, and even venture up to Pete’s favorite spots on another stream full of waiting trout. We would absolutely do it all over again, and maybe one day we will.

My experience with Roy from The New Zealand Fly Fishing Company was fantastic! He was great to communicate with right from the first email and really understood what I was looking for. Roy paired me with Chris Brennan as my guide in Taupo. From the moment we met, Chris exuded a genuine passion for fly fishing that was contagious, and it was evident that I was in for an exceptional day on the water. Right from the start, Chris made me feel comfortable and at ease. Within ten minutes, I had caught my first trout! It was an exhilarating moment, and I owe it all to Chris's expertise and guidance. His knowledge of the craft is truly impressive, and he effortlessly shared his wisdom with me throughout the day. I learned so much, not just about fly fishing techniques but also about the ecosystem, trout behaviour, and the art of reading the water. Chris has an incredible ability to be a teacher, guide, and host all at once. He strikes the perfect balance between imparting his knowledge and allowing you to explore and learn on your own. His teaching style is patient, clear, and tailored to your skill level. Whether you're a complete beginner like me or an experienced angler, Chris knows how to adapt and provide valuable insights that elevate your fishing experience. Beyond his expertise, Chris is an absolute delight to be around. His friendly and warm personality instantly puts you at ease, and it feels like you're fishing with an old friend. He creates an atmosphere of camaraderie and shared passion, which adds to the overall enjoyment of the day. His enthusiasm for the sport is infectious, and by the end of the trip, I was left with a newfound love for fly fishing. Chris goes above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the trip is memorable. From providing top-notch gear to selecting the perfect fishing spots, he pays attention to every detail. He genuinely cares about your experience and works tirelessly to make sure you have the best day possible. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at fly fishing, I wholeheartedly recommend you start your conversation with Roy from The New Zealand Fly Fishing Company.

NZ Flyfishing Company organised a full day tour for me with barely any notice! I was super impressed by their efficiency and enthusiasm. I was a novice but the guide Chris Brennan was amazing, and with his help I caught 10 fish! Strongly recommend!

What a great fishing experience! Roy set us up with a great guide, Tomas, who set us up to catch ten big rainbows on a day when other fishermen were complaining that nothing was biting. Highly recommend!

I had a fantastic time fishing with The New Zealand Flyfishing Company in the Lake Taupo region and would highly recommend Thomas as a guide! I am just a beginner at fly fishing and Thomas patiently helped me work on my tension and roll casting so that I could appropriately fish the small river with overhanging trees and brush (sorry about all the lost flies, Thomas). For me the day was as much about learning as it was about fishing and in that respect it was a great success! Thomas not only helped me improve my skills, but he helped me land no less than 12 beautiful Rainbows yelling "Legend" each time we netted a fish! Thomas loves fishing and it showed as we fished until dark, at least an hour or two past when we were meant to end the day. Now, I am far from a fishing legend, but if you are hoping to do some fly fishing in NZ definitely give NZFFC a call and ask for Thomas!

Had a fantastic time fishing with our guide Dustin. Landed a few trout and lost several very large fish. Dustin was very knowledgeable and patient with us new fly fishers. He worked hard to put us on fish and was a great teacher as well. I would highly recommend New Zealand Flyfishing.

My son and I had a fantastic time with our guide Chris, his patience and knowledge are a credit to him. Within 5 minutes of reaching the water, my son got his first rainbow trout, and they just kept coming. Thanks again NZFC.

Many things to Dustin for an unforgettable day on the water! He put together a plan that addressed our level of experience (i.e., not very much) as well as our goals for the day. Available fisheries were impacted by the recent cyclones, yet he worked tirelessly to put us on the fish. Thank you for everything!

Roy and the team are fantastic to deal with. Professional, friendly and patient with learners. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
