Aspiring Fly Fishing offer guided fly fishing trips in Tekapo and surrounding areas. Our NZPFGA guide, Paul Macandrew, will take you to the best fly fishing for large Brown and Rainbow Trout here in New Zealand's South Island. Aspiring Fly Fishing can help with anything from fly fishing in remote areas to tick fishing in the Tekapo canals off your bucket list.

The Tekapo area boasts beautiful lakes, rivers, streams, canals, and some smaller hidden away spring creeks and tributaries that hold both Brown and Rainbow Trout, with some reaching some very impressive sizes! Whether you want a multi-day fishing trip or know some more spots in Tekapo, Aspiring Fly Fishing can make it happen.

The majority of water flowing into the headwaters of Lake Tekapo comes from the Godley and Macauley river systems, which extend right back into the valleys of the Southern Alps. Feeding these rivers are large glaciers deep in the Southern Alps of the South Island, starting as snow high in the mountains. The glaciers have since retreated to the valleys at the head of the lake but are still clearly visible from the air and often accessible by four-wheel-drive vehicle. Our extensive knowledge of the best fishing areas in Tekapo allows us to pick the perfect spot for your experience levels and the current weather conditions.
