Fly Fishing – Wednesday, Thursday and Friday

In this course which may (but not necessarily) follow on from the flying tying, the theory will be put into practice.

Participants will cover a selection of tackle, trout behaviour, trout food, selection of flies and how to fish for them in the various waters of New Zealand.

As well as a few lessons at the college, most of the time will be spent putting theory into practice in some of the finest trout fishing areas in the country.

Please note: a fishing licence is a pre-requisite for the course.
