INTRODUCTION TO NEW ZEALAND FLY FISHING TECHNIQUES
Half-day introduction to South Island fly-fishing techniques on a local river or lake. Instruction on casting, New Zealand insect life, fly selection, knot-tying, reading habitat, stalking and spotting trout. NZ$ 300 per person (for two anglers); $NZ 550 for one angler. For each additional angler, add $NZ 100, with a maximum of four. This includes four hours of fishing, use of quality rods and reels, tippets, and flies, and quality photography of your outing, if desired.
Private Casting Lessons
$NZ 85 per hour, for a minimum of two hours. Practicing casting before heading out on a trip greatly increases your chances of fooling our wily wild trout. Think of it as training for an athletic event or musical performance. Preparation is the key to peak performance. Anglers considering the purchase of high-end rods should also invest in casting classes first. Technique trumps equipment.
Fly-fishing Classes
These can be arranged to suit your location in Dunedin or, weather permitting, on a local river or lake. Advanced booking is highly recommended. $140 per person (minimum of six) for eight hours of instruction.
