Catching big browns

Thanks Bob for the great day. Catching the big Browns was just what I hoped for. 
You were very knowledgeable as to where to fish the flies to use and how to fish.
 I recommend you to any type of Fly Fisher novice to expert.

1 Day trout fishing tours.
I am a Hobart based professional trout guide and tour to all Tasmanian trout waters from there.
I also meet anglers up in the Highlands for 1 day or extended tours.

General information:
Our trout fishing season starts on the first weekend in August and goes through to the last weekend in April.
For the "Dry fly" angler Dec, Jan, Feb and March are the best months to fish Tasmania however all months offer great fly or lure fishing. The summer months offer anglers some of the worlds best "dry fly" trout angling to be found anywhere in the world, based around fantastic “mayfly” hatches and other bugs on a seasonal basis.

Fly Fishing Tuition
As professional guides we specialise in all styles of trout fishing tuition for the novice and expert, so don't be put off if you are less than experienced. We will be happily take you through a fun filled session of tuition on fly fishing for trout or any other fishing techniques designed to have you trout fishing in Tasmania with skill in a short space of time.

Availability
Let me know the date or dates you want to book and I will confirm availability or hold them for until we sort out the details.

The Fishing.
The best trout fishing is in the Central Highlands of Tasmania around Great Lake. There are over 3000 lakes available to fish so I recommend the Lake fishing as that is what Tasmania is famous for. There are lots of different fishing opportunities with dry fly fishing being the best option and the best months are Dec, Jan, Feb and March. I provide all gear for fly fishing and tuition for those new to the sport. I also provide for lure fishing if required. Typical destinations will be at waters such as Little Pine, Penstock Lagoon, Arthurs Lake, Woods Lake, the Western Lakes and numerous others – all great Tasmanian trout waters.

Tours.
I provide all inclusive tours which will provide everything from transfers x Hobart or the airport, boat, waders, all quality gear, lunch, wet weather gear and the Tas fishing Lic. I usually do a 12 hour day X Hobart and return 7AM to 7PM and pick up from any Hobart location or the airport if you can get an early flight for the first day. NOTE - WE recommend you consider doing 2 or 3 days to maximize the experience and cover a variety of waters and weather conditions.

Rates:
Rates are seasonal and vary according to number of anglers and the tour you want.
Please Email us at  info@fishwildtasmania.com   with your requirements and I will send full details and rates for your tour.

Extended tours of 2 or more days.
Extending your stay and fishing for 2 or more days is the best way to experience trout fishing in any water especially in Tasmania as we have a vast range of waters and fishing options. When we stay overnight in the Highlands we could try for an early morning fish then back for a late breakfast if the weather is good for that, then out again for the rest of the day. This extends the experience to other styles of fishing and offers anglers the chance to try more of our unique fly fishing techniques.

Accommodation
Accommodation is an extra if you decide to stay overnight in the Highlands.
I recommend the following:

Central Highland Lodge
At Miena on the shores of Great Lake.
This is the best accommodation available and is very reasonable with a continental breakfast included in the room rate.  They have a great lounge, bar and bistro at the lodge for all guests and I usual stay there as well at my cost.CHL Rates for this season are - Single ES room at $108 per night and a twin share at $136 per night.  See more on the web site at http://www.centralhighlandslodge.com.au/
