  2. Fly fishing the twizel canals – Looking for a trout of a lifetime When most people think of fly-fishing in New Zealand they think of clear back country streams and big browns coming up slowly to eat small drys on the surface. That is definitely what brought me to New Zealand, but after doing some research I kept finding pictures of these ridiculously huge trout found on the Twizel canals. Most of which are caught on spin gear, while standing around battle fishing with a bunch of red necks, who will most certainly kill whatever fish they catch. Even with that unpleasant situation, the thought of landing a twenty pound trout had me very intrigued. I knew that there was definitely a way to do this on the fly, and that with a little effort I could be holding one of those monster trout as well. Fly fishing on the twizel canals is completely different from most fisheries in the world that I’ve been too but it is very similar to still water fishing, so I knew this could be done www.theflyfishingworld.com

  3. Fly fishing the twizel canals – Looking for a trout of a lifetime My Gear: I’m not sure if I really figured anything out while on the canals, or if I just got lucky. I didn’t see any other person land a big trout and I’m not sure why I kept finding them, but I can tell you what gear I was using and what worked for me. I’m by no means an expert on canal fishing and I’m sure there are guys that live down in NZ that probably have it dialed in like my kiwi friend. I decided on running an eight weight green series rod from Rise fishing company, with an 8 weight trout boss floating line from Cortland lines, spooled up on my Cheeky reel. I choose the eight weight because I knew I might find some large trout and it would be nice to be able to slow them down if I need. You could probably get away with a six weight, but the longer leaders and heavy winds make me think the eight weight is the stick of choice for the canals. www.theflyfishingworld.com

  4. Fly fishing the twizel canals – Looking for a trout of a lifetime My Rigs: My leader was hand built and I used about ten feet of straight 2x fluorocarbon, and added 4x fluorocarbon blood knotted for another 5 to ten feet to my first fly. I did run an indicator tied all the way up by the fly line as-well. Running a hand built leader helps to get the flies down faster in my opinion and also is more stealthy in the water. For flies, I had the best luck with pheasant tail of all sorts. The salmon seemed to like the leech and so did the smaller trout. As, for eggs or “glow bugs” as the kiwis call them, I didn’t have much luck but that is definitely the recommend fly down on the canal and i know some guys have great luck with them, so it is always an option. Like I said I’m no expert on these canals, just explaining what worked for me. www.theflyfishingworld.com
