シェアード3 - ワカティプ湖クィーンズタウンでの1時間フィッシングチャーター

Got to catch my first 2 rainbow trouts! great experience, Ollie was very kind and friendly.

A fantastic day out on the lake, Ollie was and incredibly knowledgeable and friendly skipper and despite the fish eluding us made for an excellent morning’s fishing!

Unfortunately the fish were not particularly hungry, however that's the risk you take. The scenery was amazing and Ollie was very knowledgeable, so still a great day out on the lake. Would recommend. Also morning tea provided was delicious!!

I had a great time and we caught rainbows , browns, and salmon. The skipper is very knowledgeable and super friendly to spend a morning with. And he slices up some tasty sashimi!

Ollie was terrific. His boat was very comfortable & immaculate. We caught plenty of trout (a mix of rainbow & brown). Ollie was also congenial & extremely knowledgeable.

Not sure why this company is called Catch A Fish… it should be called Catch A Lot Of Fish!! Thanks to some last-minute planning genius (aka poor trip planning on our end), we tried booking a charter the day before and assumed we were completely out of luck. They were tentatively booked solid, but our captain, Olly, went above and beyond—creating an extra special charter for our group of five just to squeeze us in for a lake fishing adventure. Honestly, we expected maybe one fish… or none at all. Little did we know, Olly was about to make us all look foolish. He dropped us right on the spot, and within the first hour, we hooked three massive salmon in the first 60 minutes. We were convinced that was our peak moment—fish karma officially cashed in. But the trip wasn’t done surprising us. A couple of our first-time anglers wanted to try for rainbow trout, so Olly casually mentioned a secret honey hole near the marina. We made the run, and sure enough—boom—one rainbow trout hooked immediately. We landed it, hooked two more, but sadly lost them on the fight. No heartbreak though, because by that point we were already releasing fish like we worked for the Department of Marine Conservation. To top off an unforgettable day, Olly filleted two of the salmon on board, whipped out soy sauce and wasabi, and treated us to fresh New Zealand Chinook salmon sashimi right there on the boat. Paired with a couple bottles of rosé we brought along, it was the ultimate Sip & Sushi on a lake moment—Bay Area style, New Zealand sourced. Olly was insanely accommodating, especially considering most of our group had never fished before. His patience, expertise, and passion made everyone feel like pros (even though the salmon did most of the work). Highly recommend booking a trip with him. Top-tier customer service. Deep fishing knowledge. Unmatched experience design. And most importantly—he loves to catch a LOT of fish and create incredible memories for his guests. 10/10. Would charter again. 🎣

Ollie was a very knowledgeable and friendly captain throughout our trip, providing us useful local knowledge not just about the fishing and game but about local places to eat, explore and adventure. The boat is pristine, clean and due to the smaller group format, it allowed for a much more intimate and enjoyable experience than a churn in and out fishing charter. As for the fishing, we caught 12 fish across the 3 hours, all of them beautiful and fun to bring in with notable 40-55cm Brown Trout and Rainbow trout which put up a nice fight throughout. All of the fish are either kept (if you want to) or returned via safe and careful release. No experience is needed and it is a great introduction to the fishing in NZ, plus our captain Ollie even brought us morning tea. Could not recommend more and will definitely be back next time we come to NZ.

Fantastic day out. Plenty of hook ups. Highly recommend the skipper Ollie and his efforts. Great clean boat room for everyone.

Great boat and captain. Almost exclusive access to the lake. Nice trolling for brown and rainbow trout. Might catch salmon. Great experience.

Olly was great and very professional! He took us to a great fishing spot on Lake Wakatipu and ended up catching quite a few brown and rainbow trouts!!! We kept 1 and he was able to direct us to a place that cooked it for us to eat for lunch. The scenery was beautiful and the experience was fun and relaxing!!
