About New Zealand Fishing

New Zealand has some of the best fishing anywhere in the world, both freshwater and sea fishing. The freshwater fishing can be found under troutfishing That is Ron's main passion; one that has resulted in four best-selling trout fishing books.









  

Ron has caught more than 30 trout weighing over 10 lbs, the magical fish weight for a flyfisherman. So he knows better than most, where to catch trophy trout in New Zealand. His books, apart from the one pictured, are out of print but you can buy the e-book versions here.

Sea Fishing

Sea fishing is also hugely popular ranging from game fishing for marlin down to kids fishing for sprats off the wharf. Ron fishes in the Waitemata Harbour from his 3.4m RID - a 'one man band' fishing dinghy. Main target is snapper, with the occasional John Dory an extra treat!
