What you can expect
Breathe in the alpine air while fishing on Lake Wakatipu, one of Queenstown's most iconic natural wonders. This three-hour guided fishing trip offers a relaxing yet exciting escape, perfect for anglers of any level. The panoramic views of The Remarkables, Cecil Peak, and Walter Peak, combined with the crystal-clear, glacier-fed waters, make this experience truly postcard-worthy. You'll target trout and salmon using downriggers to reach the deeper parts of the lake, giving you a real shot at landing a catch.
The ride for the day is a smooth and quiet vessel powered by an electric trolling motor, making things eco-friendly while you enjoy the scenery. Additionally, the included snacks and soft drinks, along with premium gear and expert guidance, make this trip as comfortable as it is memorable.
