Taupo Trout Fishing

Lake Taupo New Zealand

Taupo trout fishing is world famous.  The Tongariro River is Lake Taupo's main spawning river and world famous for the size and quantity of trout in it. Out in the Lake there are zillions of Trout and they're all fat and feisty. Fly-fishing guides will have you hooked up to a fish on your first day. A great sport all year round. And did you know you can't buy trout in Taupo! But take your catch into many of our local retaurants and they will cook it for you! (Contact the restaurant before hand so they know you're coming.)

For more information about the fishing in the Lake Taupo region please see nzfishing.com. Important Notice

Anglers are asked to help prevent the spread of didymo (rock snot) and other organisms in New Zealand fishing waters by always checking, cleaning and drying their equipment when moving items between waterways, including those where didymo has not been detected. Visit nzfishing.com for more information.
