New Zealand Fly Fishing Guides

"We are passionate about all aspects of fly fishing, and take pride in ensuring our clients have a superb vacation - and we absolutely love what we do!"

We firmly believe that "He who dies with the most memories wins" - and helping create memories such as the one at left is what motivates us to be the very best at what we do. Fly fishing is such a special pastime, and the memories it generates are the glorious "Technicolor" ones that last a life time... 

"We enjoy watching others land a fish equally as much as we enjoy landing them ourselves!"

 

Above all, we take immense satisfaction in ensuring that each client goes away having not only enjoyed their stay, but having learned some valuable skills and lessons in the process - skills that will serve them for a life time!

 

Such is the wonder and joy of fishing that it transcends generations, nationalities, gender and occupation.

New Zealand is a Mecca for fly fishermen and women the world over, and our West Coast region offers stunning landscapes and great fishing.

I hope that when you make your first or next pilgrimage to NZ, you'll not only make the time to visit our region, but will also choose to come and fish with me.
