During the winter months, Aspiring Fly Fishing offers winter fly-fishing opportunities in the Central Otago region, where some rivers are open year-round for trout fishing. The Clutha River, in particular, provides excellent fishing during this time.
Aspiring Fly Fishing offers guided fishing trips to various South Island areas, including Queenstown, Wanaka, Westland, Te Anau, Twizel, and more. The choice of location depends on the trip duration, weather conditions, and the goals of the angler.
