Evening Rise Fly Fishing
New Zealand
Welcome to an unforgettable fly fishing adventure in the heart of New Zealand’s Southland and Otago regions! I’m Mike Dennis, and I take great pride in showcasing the exceptional freshwater fishing opportunities here. Whether you’re looking for a short angling escape, a peaceful day on the water, or a multi-day expedition, I’ll tailor your trip to create memories that last a lifetime.
Meet Your Expert Guide
I’m Mike Dennis, a true New Zealander who fell in love with fly fishing at the age of 10. My journey began with catching eels by handline and the thrill of landing my first trout on a fly rod. Since then, my passion has taken me across New Zealand’s two main islands, the Cook Islands, Southeast Asia, Australia, and Canada’s Pacific Northwest. With 25 years of guiding experience in Southland (New Zealand’s Home of Brown Trout) and Otago, I’ve developed an intimate knowledge of these waters and their fish.
A Passion for Teaching
Beyond guiding, I love teaching fly fishing to anglers of all levels. Whether it’s setting up gear, mastering knots, refining casting techniques, or choosing the perfect fly, I’m here to share my expertise. From beginners to seasoned anglers looking to sharpen their skills, I cater to everyone. Join me for a day of fun, stunning scenery, crystal-clear water, and the excitement of sight-fishing rising trout.
Embark on a Unique Adventure
Let me introduce you to fly fishing for New Zealand’s spectacular brown trout. For an extra thrill, we can explore night fishing along lake edges and stream mouths. Imagine casting a mouse pattern (season permitting) or a streamer fly under a starry sky—this is when the "big boys" come out to play, where trophy trout lurk.
Your Safety Comes First
When you fish with me, you’re in safe hands. I hold a First Aid Field Qualification and serve as an Operational Team Member of Search and Rescue, backed by years of outdoor experience. I’m also a proud member of the New Zealand Professional Fishing Guides Association, ensuring I meet all industry standards for your peace of mind.
