All levels of fishing expertise are welcome, as the goal is to provide New Zealand fly-fishing trips to remember.
For those interested in salmon fishing, Braided Rivers Fishing Guides offers the opportunity to explore the unique braided rivers of Canterbury. With the stunning Southern Alps as a backdrop, guests can cast to wild Chinook (King) Salmon. Ben Haywood's 25 years of experience ensure that he can help participants locate prime salmon holding waters in the more scenic and remote sections of the rivers.
Another highlight is trout fishing in Tekapo's/Twizel's Hydro Canals, which is home to some of the world's largest brown and rainbow trout.
