Hi guys and girls. I have just moved to nz from south africa and need some advice. i am a saltwater fly fisherman who has done some fly fishing for trout. What rivers can i fish in winter or lakes in the south island canterbury area. an what method should i use for them. Is the saltwater fly fishing any good in winter in the south island. Any advice would be greatly appreciated .
If the only place I could fish was in a bucket then illl be the happiest person in a bucket

You should post this up in the SWF section Bullie, kahawai and sea run are probably your best sw targets in the south, better in the spring.. Have a look at NZ Fish and Game site for regulations on winter fishing in rivers and lakes, there's quite a few fisheries like Wanaka / Clutha / Tekapo open year round but quite a few rivers and streams that are closed..the west coast around and north of Haast maybe your best bet for Kahawai, scenery not too shaby either
