Middle Earth Fly Fishing
Fly-fishing comes with a diversity of motivation. For some,it’s about chasing big fish, or a busy day with consistent high numbers, but
for me, fly fishing’s greatest gift, is captured in those quality moments
shared with like-minded people in beautiful places. South Island New Zealand is arguably the world’s best
offering for sight fishing to large trout. We literally don’t cast until we see
a fish; watch it’s feeding pattern; and carefully plot our plan of attack. More
than that, it’s done is gin-clear water with stunning scenery in every
direction – epic mountains, glacial cut valleys and hidden back-country streams
full of character (not people). You can’t help but think you are the only
person for hundreds of miles. Very simply, a summer in NZ will change your angling life.
