Your guide will pick you up from your accommodation at a pre-arranged time. From there we will drive into Southland, you will spend the day casting to stalked and sighted fish ranging in size from 3lbs - 5lbs, always with the possibility of seeing and hooking into much larger fish. A gourmet lunch will be enjoyed on the riverside. The landscapes range from lush green farmland to open tussock lands to mountain beech forests and stunning mountain scenery with spring creeks, freestone rivers and alluvial rivers to choose between. You will stay in a 1930's railway cottage in the heart of rural Southland at Lumsden. You will dine out at the May Fly Cafe and after dinner have the option to go and check out the evening rise on one of the famous local rivers.
