YOUR GUIDE
Chris is a passionate angler with many years experience fishing for trout and salmon in Australia, New Zealand (both North Island & South Island) and in the UK. Chris is eager to share his experience, knowledge and skills with his guests in Tasmania. Chris is philosophical about life and fishing and believes that it is a continuous work in progress where he never stops learning.
OUR PASSION
Our passion comes from sharing a special experience and some small successes every now and again. It is a continuous work in progress. There is nothing “easy” about fly fishing
in Tasmania, but it seems to bring out the best in us.
The weather in the mountains is just the start
… but, it can be magic.
YOUR EXPERIENCE
There is not a strict schedule, routine or itinerary etched in stone prior to your arrival in Tasmania. Chris has experience in working with older people, people with different levels of experience and people who have disabilities. Your day’s fishing experience is about looking after and working with you to greatest benefit. He is also a member of the Trout Guides & Lodges Tasmania so he can call upon other guides to work with you to cater for larger groups.
“I like to offer something in the way of a challenging possibility whether we agree to do a one-day trip to a “Mecca” of fly fishing like Little Pine Lagoon – or we can do a solid day of ‘polaroiding’ in the Western Lakes.”
LOCATION
There are endless possibilities in the pristine Tasmanian landscape which will be tailored to you dependent on the time of year. The possibilities for the best returns from trout fly-fishing in Tasmania are influenced by weather conditions.
Experiences might include:
Early mornings midge-feeding fish rising in the wind lanes on the Great Lake
“Tailing trout” where the trout come into the shallow grassy margins at Little Pine Lagoon
On warmer days fishing we can experience terrestrial “gum beetle” falls – which can be fished from a boat
