King of the Flats

South Island New Zealand, famous for its rugged coastlines, clear mountain streams, and large healthy trout, isn’t known for its saltwater fly fishing. That is, until now.

Join Joshua Hutchins, Aussie Fly Fisher, along with Collingwood local, Anton Donaldson, NZ Trout Adventures, in the Golden Bay region of NZ as they unveil the treasures of this emerging fishery.

Enjoy the explosive sight fishing of ray-riding kingfish, in the unexpected warm waters of South Island, NZ.

Special thanks to our film maker, Filippo Rivetti, Timeflees, as well as our supporters: Loop Tackle, Fly Tackle NZ and FlyLife magazine.

To read more about this unique fishery grab the latest issue (#84) of Australia and New Zealand's leading fly fishing magazine, FlyLife - www.flylife.com.au

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
