Fishing Profile
Fly and line
fishing in New Zealand is amongst the best in the world
catching mainly Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout and the
occasional Salmon.The lakes and rivers we fish are within
2 1/2 hours drive of Christchurch city and are well
stocked with fish suitable for both the learner and the
experienced fisherman, either by fly fishing with dry
fly,wet fly,lures or nymphs or line fishing with toby's,
jigs, rigs or even bait in some fishing spots.
Fly fishing for Trout
Salmon fishing
We mainly sight cast for trout by
stalking them first, or night fish the feeding lies,
wind lies and foam off the banks of both rivers and
lakes .
You can fish the rivers of the Canterbury area for
Salmon with both tycers and Z spinners, colour
flashed with a 9 ft solid glass rod & surf reel
& enjoy the fight and catch.

Camping Out
Why not try
it! We have and its great to be on the side
of a river or lake between December &
February. You're on site for 2 - 3 days and
can fish 24 hours a day without interruption.
There are 6 lakes to camp next to and fish
only a few minutes drive from camp base.
Staying in tents and a pop top camper, with
all the modern comforts of home (well, most
of them). All sleeping and cooking equipment,
food and refreshments are supplied.- even the
sleeping bag. Try our outdoor BBQ cooking
with maybe a freshly caught Trout or Salmon
cooked on it. It's DELISHIMO....even we can even eat it!!! Remember

Cabins are available
along side some rivers in Canterbury i.e. the
Ashley & Selwyn rivers, at reasonable rates

Tenting
Outback
What can we say!!!.
"The only way to go" right on the
lake edge, in amongst the native bush.Hear the
trout feeding on the insect hatches, Smell the
crisp night air, and listen to the cicadas and
night beetles hitting the canvas trying to find
the lantern light, in the still of a summers
evening. A
UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE
