Hi all, pretty new to the sport but got really into it during a 5 week trip around the south island last month. I caught my first Salmon trolling from a boat with a local on the West Coast, my first brown trout and first fish on fly in Southland on the Mataura and a couple of rainbows on the Spinner in the rivers feeding into or from Lake Tekapo.

My wife is a bit annoyed that I am still keen on it even after "Way too much fishing" on our trip - I assure you, none of you would think I did anywhere enough fishing, considering the awesome rivers available in the South Island.

Anyways, I'm hooked and keen to know where the best spots are near to Auckland. I'm based in Otahuhu and keen for anything within 30m-1 hour's drive. Cheers all!
