Summer Fly fishing trips (October – April)
Superb backcountry fly fishing, rivers and streams accessed by comfortable 4WD. Nymph and dry fly fishing for wild brown and rainbow trout that will happily take a well presented fly.
Winter Fly fishing trips (May – September)
Fly fishing Taupo’s famous Steelhead rivers. These fish average just under 4lbs and fight like bucking bronco.
