Queenstown is right on the doorstep of one of the worlds largest World Heritage Areas. Fiordland National Park is on the list of places to see when you visit New Zealand. Photographs don’t do the place justice, you have to see it for yourself to beleive it and more so feel it. If you have travelled from the other side of the world and your time is limited, let us organise a day that will feel like a week long  journey of experiences and leave you thinking that it was all just a dream…….

We even caught some Rainbow Trout on the way. Now that is a day that is hard to forget!!

If you ever talk to Anthony and Angela Hamilton or Leon and Fiona Christianakis  or Bruce and I then we will tell you how it was…..

We like to call it ‘OUR BACK YARD’ things are closer then you think once you get aboard a helicopter. The images will tell you the story. But there is nothing like being there yourself…………

The Fishers go fishing!

What a way to start the New Year! The first day of 2009 was spent with the Fisher family from San Fransisco. The weather all around Queenstown was Dark, Windy and Wet!!! We managed to find some Dreamwater that kept the whole family entertained. Some great fish were caught and released, it was a pleasure for both Bruce and i to guide not only a family of passionate fisher peolple but also very technically skilled at casting and dealing with the strong head winds that greeted us for the New Year. That day will be long remembered……

Mike and Noels check out some local water and meet the locals……

We climbed aboard Alpine choppers with Stefan and headed across the lake to see what was going on. The weather was about perfect for doing anything outdoors.

 With a river that was crystal clear and trout that were willing to take a dry fly with the right presentation, we had an entertaining day to remember. Noels even found time to take a wee knap on the path beside the river.

That is a pretty priceless day to be having, i’m sure we will be giving it another go sometime soon………….
