They start in the hills as mountain streams, gathering power until they reach the lowlands where they spread and become rivers flowing through farms and forests on their way to the sea. Trout, both brown and rainbow, inhabit most rivers of both main islands of New Zealand and they are pursued by fishermen and women wherever they exist. New Zealand waters are as diverse as spring creeks and braided rivers, fast flowing freestone rivers to slow lowland rivers and each type requires a different approach for you to be consistently successful in catching trout. This book will show you how. Chappie Chapman is well known to New Zealand and overseas anglers. He was involved in trout fishing at an early age, catching his first trout at the age of 13. He spent many years in the fishing tackle industry and helped design and develop many of the popular brands of tackle on the market today. For the past 20 years he has been guiding and overseas anglers around New Zealand. He also runs a fly fishing school and has taught many hundreds of people how to successfully fish for trout. His qualifications include Certified Fly Fishing Instructor from the Federation of Fly Fishers in the USA and he is a member of the New Zealand Professional Fly Fishing Guides Association. He lives in Christchurch, where his fishing school is based and guides throughout New Zealand.   Price: $39.99   « Previous | Next »
