Home to some of the best fishing in the world, the Methven Region has endless opportunities for anglers, with its wide range of rivers and lakes that hold Salmon and Trout.
Picture yourself fly fishing New Zealand!
Packages are available which allow you to enjoy an enthralling jet boat ride over braided streams and through the scenic Rakaia Gorge in lure of the Chinook King Salmon or the brown and rainbow trout.
The Rakaia River is only a 10 minute drive from Methven.
Fishing license is $21.00 per person per day (2008-2009 season).
Another amazing alternative is helicopter fishing - the spectacular remote wilderness fishing experience where the only footprints are yours and the wildlife! Treat yourself to the time of your life fishing untouched waters and enjoy the fresh mountain scenery that surrounds you.
The helicopter is yours for the whole day enabling you to fish the many different waters that await you. For lunch why not fly up to a glacier at the heights of the Southern Alps then head for a secluded west coast stream, before flying back over the Alps for some quality fishing in a freestone and spring creek.
