Mackenzie Country, New Zealand is home to some of the world's biggest trout. Living in pristine alpine water these fish easily top 20lb with some even reaching over 30lb! Surrounded by the beautiful snow capped Southern Alps this area is a stunning fishing location. Canal fishing is most effective using a spin rod. It is an open season so we can fish all year round!

Tekapo - Twizel canal systems provide a world class sports fishery regularly producing mega trout not found anywhere else in the world. This is a fishing destination that should be on every anglers bucket list.

During a trip with Scotty you will learn in-depth tricks and techniques to feel the most subtle of bites, all rigging and knot tying tips and a full run down on the set up and why its done that way. You will be equipped with the skills to battle one of these monster trout on light gear giving you the best chance to land one.

All tackle, rod and reel, lunch, snacks and water will be provided. All you need are some good shoes, warm clothes and wet weather gear (just in case).

We only use the highest quality Shimano combos and tackle to give you the best chance to tap into an epic fish.
