Todd is a master of his craft. He put us on the fish straight away, and managed to score the biggest brown trout's to date! Scenery was second to none. To add to the experience, Todd is just a top bloke. Couldn't recommend more highly. We will be back....

The scenery the South Island offers makes for such a wonderful place to fish and with Todd’s extensive knowledge of the backcountry, allowed for us to access pristine waters that held healthy trout without seeing another angler. We managed to hook up with some excellent fish after I was humbled by long-leader casting into wind. His knowledge of the entomology in the area allowed for fast fly changes to mix up presentations to...

His expertise and experience is expectedly impressive, but his style as a guide makes him an absolute pleasure to fish with. He's patient, supportive, and encouraging, enabling you to fish at your best and really enjoy the whole experience....

Todd guided me in fishing and backpacking a gorgeous river valley for three days. I simply don’t know what was better, the thrill of stalking and catching gorgeous rainbow and brown trout, soaking in the spectacular scenery or seeing my casting improve by leaps and bounds under Todd’s very patient tutelage. His love of the country and care for the fish and habitat were obvious from the beginning.”...

Not only did Todd take us to some fantastic water and put us in front of some big fish, he also took the time to explain his strategy and help us dual in our technique for the unique NZ conditions.Fishing with Todd was like fishing with a good friend. He genuinely enjoyed celebrating the wins with us and helped us laugh off the losses. I will definitely fish with Todd again when I'm next in NZ....

As the weather forecast developed, he kept us informed as to where we might head. On the day, we had some great conversations to learn about one another and got acquainted with the region and fishery and the approaches we'd probably use. On the water, Todd was really patient as we got up to speed with the super high-quality rods and he handed them to us and before long, we were onto fish. Todd kept our energy up with a nice lunch for the afternoon. More nic...

We both learned so much from you; for me, the importance of line management! and for Joce, a cast starting free of too many bad habits : ) I have not seen Joce smile like she did after catching her first fish in a long time.Beyond your fly fishing expertise, you are an amazing teacher and we're so lucky to learn from you in an incredible place. I'm inspired by your ability to conn... Mon, 03 Jul 2023 17:59:10 +1200 http://www.toddadolphflyfishing.com/blog/#post106750
