Brown Trout Heaven®-Nelson Lakes Fly Fishing

• Situated on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, near the source of the mighty Buller River, the village of St Arnaud is located between the higher rainfall area of the West Coast and the drier climate of the East Coast... making this the ideal location to fish very different water types each day from the one base.  read Zane's Dec 2009 Article about St Arnaud
• There is good fishing whatever the weather, wind direction, or river flows.
• Only 1 hour drive south from Nelson, based in the headwaters of the Buller, Motueka and Wairau river systems, a wide variety of waters await the visiting angler...from small bush streams, to large braided rivers and still-waters.
• Your base in St Arnaud is nestled amongst mature NZ native beech forest, within the Nelson Lakes National Park.
