Guided Fly Fishing Trips

You don’t have to travel far from Whare Kea Lodge to find your own piece of paradise in which to fish, with the rivers and streams around Wanaka brimming with New Zealand salmon and trout.

Expert local guide Ian Cole offers a wide range of tailor-made fly-fishing packages, starting from hourly lessons to full-day excursions, with the option of heli-fishing: accessing spectacular remote spots via helicopter and camping overnight.

The best months for fly fishing in New Zealand are in summer, from October to March.

Guests of Whare Kea can take their catch back to the kitchen where chef James Stapley will prepare it on request.
