Looking for a Wellington Fly fishing Guide?

As part of an ever-expanding guiding service, I now offer guide trips out of the Wellington City/Region to the multitude of waterways within the Hutt River, Otaki River and Ruamahanga River systems. Although based in Palmerston North, I regulary commute to Wellington for anglers in the city.

 A typical day starts with pick up ( generally 8am) at your accomodation or meeting at a pre-arranged location in Wellington City. This allows 7-9 hours of good fishing time before drop-off (generally 6pm). Seldom will I ever turn down a good evening rise in which case the day will end a little later!

For those wishing to maximise their fishing experience and short stay in Wellington, we can organise helicopter fly-outs for the day. Wellington boasts a world-class backcountry fly fishing experience for large brown trout in stunning, crystal clear mountain rivers.

A full day includes guiding, 4WD vehicle transport pick-up/drop-of, wader/boot hire,
stream-side lunch, snacks and refreshments.

If you require wader and boot hire I stock a full size range of quality breathable waders and sturdy, supportive wading boots.
