FISHING WANAKA  Fishing Wanaka is wonderful and its Wanaka Homestead's speciality. Our resident guide, with years of experience of fishing Wanaka, caters for never-evers and experts alike, with custom-made guided fishing Wanaka adventures, fly-fishing tuition or wilderness fishing safaris. Within 15-90 minutes drive from Wanaka, lakes, rivers and numerous streams are home to brown and rainbow trout as well as salmon. Fishing Wanaka can be action packed year round but October-November, March-April-May, and winter (August), are particularly rewarding times. Guided Fishing Wanaka Half, full or multi-day adventures and a choice of several lakes, rivers and many mountain streams makes fishing Wanaka a truly amazing New Zealand experience. But with clear mountain water and perfect visibility, these healthy Wanaka fish can afford to be discerning. Your fishing Wanaka guides are tuned to their frequency, matching the choice of location with the right fly, and supplying you with transport, equipment, waders and a fabulous picnic lunch. Advice is on hand - as much or little as you desire.  Fishing Wanaka wilderness areas - guided safaris Guided fly fishing adventures are not limited to Wanaka.
