Welcome to Wild Angler!

Searching for the world’s finest fly fishing for wild brown and rainbow trout? Dreaming of the trip of a lifetime? Then come experience New Zealand’s South Island with Wild Angler.

Wild Angler is a high-quality, low-impact guide service specializing in one- to ten-day trips to rivers like the legendary Mataura, whose lush Deleatidium hatches and wild free-rising browns make the river a dry-fly mecca; intimate Otago and Southland tributaries with big fish in small water; and classic backcountry rivers of the Southern Alps where trophy rainbows and browns sway in pools as clear as mountain air.

Fly fishing the South Island's remote rivers in Fiordland and Mt Aspiring national parks and the wild West Coast are an angling dream come true.

Large wild trout, gorgeous South Island landscapes, custom flies, gourmet lunch and a professional photo service make this the trip of a lifetime.

I hope I can help you enjoy fly fishing this beautiful country.
