| Fishing waters |
There are so many rivers
in the area, the choice becomes almost overwhelming. The different
rivers and streams offer different challenges. They include the:
- Motueka
- Wangapeka
- Travers
- Wairau |
| The fishing |
- Single day fishing trips swight fishing
in crystal clear water for large fish, with the option of covering
a lot or a little ground on foot during a day's fishing.
- Multi day fishing and camping trips. Note
that tramping and fishing requires a good degree of fitness. It
can be more demanding - but rewarding.
- Helicopter fly-ins
- A good day may see up to 10 or even more
fish landed. Most fish will be in the 3-6 lb range with some up
to 8lbs or larger.
- Catch, photograph and release your trout
- A full range of quality gear is available
- When guiding, Aaron does not fish but does
carry a rod as a spare
