Thank you for visiting!
 Hello!
I'm Michael Vetters, a fly fishing guide with a base in Te Anau the
gate way to Fiordland as well as still keeping a semi base in Gore, I
grew up on the banks of the Mataura River and in one of the world's
best trout fishing areas. I've recently set up a base in Te Anau to
bring you my valued clients a wider range of unique water ways to
fish. Fiordland has some of the most beautiful scenery in the world
and fly fishing amongst the unspoiled native New Zealand bush can be
an exhilarating and rewarding experience second to none!
I
hope I will be able to help you enjoy fly fishing in this beautiful
part of new Zealand.
With my experience and determination to
find the best fishing New Zealand has to offer, I will show you the
best spots Fiordland and Southland has to offer!
I have
extensive knowledge of most rivers in Southland and of the surrounding
regions, Many rivers within my reach, such as the Mararoa, Waikaia,
Whitestone, Eglinton, Hollyford and the Waiau to name a small few with
some of my personal favourites being the Mataura, Oreti and Pomahaka
rivers.
I will PERSONALLY guide you so that I can guarantee a
top quality service.
Matching the hatch on the famous Mataura
river can be challenging to say the least, and for this you can't beat
the knowledge of a true local guide. The selective feeding wild brown
trout rise readily to the day time mayfly, midge and evening caddis
hatches. However, the Mataura river, although sometimes frustrating,
can offer a most enjoyable days fishing and I will show you how to
leave with a smile on your face.
Sight fishing for wild
rainbow and brown trout in the gin clear backcountry rivers can be an
exhilarating experience during summer. Spring creeks offer even more
of a challenge with accurate casting and very long leaders required
for success.
If you are interested in exploring our local
waters, then day trips and overnight trips can be arranged to most of
the rivers in Fordland and Southland. Please read on for further
details or
contact me directly.
