Fly Fishing For the BIGGEST TROUT in The World! 

Been fly fishing for over 40 years and never seen fishing like this. Amazing.

Absolutely incredible..like wow..that is the most amazing fishery I've ever seen..the fish and the river..you absolutely do NOT get anything better than that..end of story

When your major concern is the net's not big enough, you know you're in fishing heaven. Jealous doesn't even come close to covering it. Awesome video mate, thank you for sharing.

Love how he calls the fish who didn’t take the fly an idiot.

The shots from the drone with the rainbow running and jumping was unreal!!

THE best rainbow fishing I have ever seen. Crazy stuff man!

Can’t get enough of your videos Mate! Absolutely love what you're doing and so Inspirational, I’ve just started my own Spearfishing/fishing channel based on The Great Barrier Reef.

Those are unreal. The drone footage showing those monsters all together in a pool is awesome.

That drone footage of Lance catching one before he left was on point! Good work, keep it up!

Loved the drone view and cracked up (in a very been there done that way) when you were going to pack it in for sure and “here I am fishing again”... I belong to the one more cast brigade!

You guys are so lucky to live at the right spot on earth. Fishing like you is a dream, which I hope to realize one day. Enjoy!

That is the most incredible spot, absolute monster trout. It's going to be hard to go anywhere else and be satisfied with the little guys! Excellent video, keep it up!

SIRI missed two fish. This is the best pure fishing channel on my feed. Haven't found a better one yet!

4:45 this is by far the sickest shot I have ever seen well done

The BEST fly fishing video I’ve seen! Please keep up that great work. That’s gonna be very tough to top

Some times all you can do is fish the waters you've been given - I have to work hard for 7" trout in a very short window of weather (water turns rock hard here for about 5 months of the year)... but I'm happy with the native brookies ( been to NZ once - if I get the chance I'll be back) - Thanks for the videos / nice work!

Another great video, Gareth! Loved the drone footage. You need to be thankful for days like this & not dreading catching another fish coz you're tired to land it dude. Some of us are still stuck in hard lock down in Melbourne & having to live our fishing lives vicariously through you! 😜 😂 Keep up the great content! 😁 👍🏻

Mate you’re gonna be disappointed fishing back home now😂 unreal fish, such a stunning place down there. Love your channel man, I’m into my second season on the fly now, your vids certainly are a huge motivator and put together on point, love that real ness as well. Chur bro!!!

Coolest video I’ve ever watched for trout fishing. Thanks so much for sharing and capturing this epic action

What an epic fishery, going to be tough fishing up north again 😅

The drone footage was great while fighting your fish.You can see so many more in there and some spooking .Top notch 👍

These video's are just epic! I must get there.... Dream size trout everywhere.

Wow, crazy fishing. Keep up the great videos.

It’s crazy how similar this place is to Idaho. Sage, pines, yellow grass, pristine rivers, snow capped mountains in the background... I’m literally on the opposite side of the planet but this looks like my own backyard. Our fish aren’t usually quite this big though, lol. 😂 love the video!

Awesome vid!!! Great angles and the drone shot was spectacular!!!

Brilliant video. Stuck in "lockdown" here in the UK. Tbh I don't mind . I have become addicted to NZ fishing as an armchair angler. Loved this. It is as if I am there catching monster trout.. Well done!

As soon as I get enough in my savings account, I’m booking a trip from California and hiring you to be my guide! EPIC - Beyond jealous, your killing it!

4:30 sooo good. There must be like 7 fish in that one spot. Epic shot!! Videos are getting great man keep them coming.

Excellent video as always bro. Super amazing fish.

NICE FISH !!! I live near Lake Michigan we have a few big strains of rainbow and brown trout but those look super!

awesome content! it truly baffles me to see NZ Fishing. especially freshwater fishing! almost none of that here in hawaii. Aloha mah bradda. Tight lines! Chee!

Love the drone footage u can see the fish clearly and jumping

This series of videos have been awesome! Lance seemed like a great sidekick :D you must have just passed out after ending the video haha.

Clean and clear, I love this river!!!!

Wow 🙌🏻🙌🏻 awesome fish and amazing place . Well done lads 👍🏻

incredible. some of the most beautiful trout and healthiest fish i have ever seen.

Bro I wish I could take one trip to New Zealand and fish with you. Great video. Definitely my favorite trout fly fisherman channel

Awesome Gareth, loved the drone shot of the hook up, we over there again tomorrow for a final lash, Worlds Biggest ya Trolls!

Those aerial shots were spectacular!

Awesome video, beautiful fish thanks for sharing 👍

Dude that would be so sick!! Awesome vid man!

Those bows are just spectacular ! And your footage is next level. Great job bud !

The arial view of the take and fight was spectacular. Really enjoy your stuff. Have dreamed of getting to ur country to fish . Probably not happening in this lifetime.

I'm a huge Smith glasses fan bud!!! They are affordable plus quality. These are the biggest trout I've seen you catch. Straight monsters dude.

Love the overhead video playing the fish into you.....Please let us know more often what you're using and how you're rigged up!! ( Leader , tippet , droppers , etc. )

Some sick footage there bro! Lovely bows👍

Dude epic stuff love it and as for all the funky comments just ignore we are very lucky here in nz that we can do this sort of thing and really appreciate you sharing your experiences and knowledge top man 🤪

Those are some cool fish right there. I don’t think I’d ever fish anywhere else. How could you possibly get tired of that

Giants! Beautiful fish/ Beautiful scenery!

It’s my dream to fish somewhere like that

Awesome fish, I'm pretty sure I could see a huge fish in the water just behind you as you were releasing a fish, very close to you. I had another look and there was a couple of fish sitting there. Awesome video

My god...id never do anything else if I lived out there. Side note sick editing and camera angles my guy.

Just stumbled on your channel recently... had no clue trout got this big!

Drone shots are terrific. Crystal clear water and unbelievable fish. And yes, you need a bigger net. Swear the water level dropped when you had those fish up for the pictures.

One Day..... I will make it there. Great vid as always man.

very nice video of a spectacular fishing of those the BIGGEST TROUT in The World very good video thanks for sharing greetings

Amak jang... Mantap kali ah... Nang kene jenenge iwak paten iku om .. 😘😘

Wow! What a huge fish! You have to travel far in new england for good fishing like that.

awesome fish these are only fish i can dream of thanks for sharing

Yeah those Anzac rainbows get pretty big, don't they? Won't need too many of those to feed the family! Right on New Zealand! Thanks for sharing.

Epic fish and vid!

Super fishing. Luxus river. 👍

It's like fishing in a barrel. Spawning fish, full of roe and eggs milling around in front of you in the right spot. I'm sure a bit of jagging goes on.(I saw it last year). It is also a testament to the stocks of fish in the Twizel area...the river being fished is only one part of the whole system. One thing for sure, catch one of these big rainbows in Febuary night fishing on a lumo fly and there are major runs, smashing jumps in the darkness and a full on fight by a fish in its prime. It's very good of Fish and Game to open the Ohau River in September to give the GP (general public) the chance to fish for these beasts even if they are spawning. I'm jealous...

Oh man, definitely want to fish over there at some point!

Love the jumps!

Got to admire fish of that size , casted a dry fly to a trout close to double figures once, heart was pounding.....fly got stuck in tree above him, so i thought bugger it, just sat there and had lunch watching him instead lol.

Why don't you take a vacation ... let me fill in for ya ... you look tired 😓🤣

That last fish is still cursing you out, lol!

Great video man love the angles

Holy crap how is this video not in the millions by now.

Amazing Gareth. Just Amazing.

Good video Gareth, loved the Titanic reference

Doofus has no problem feeding😂🎣

Interesting that, during the overhead shot, a fish fighting the line pretty hard didn't bother them, but when your line went over them, they immediately flushed away and went back to where they felt safe.

This is beyond a fishing video. This is artistic. 4:45

My pb trout was 6lb and I thought that was big lovely video lads

That video is dope man! Nice fish!

Wow what a place! Great video☺🙂

Love your videos!!! I would like to go back to New Zealand and hire you as a guide..😀😀😀😀😀

The drone footage while fighting a fish but with fish this size it looked amazing. Great video and even better fish bro. Can’t wait to see the final day. What size leader are you running to these slabs?

First time watching your videos. I had always heard about NZ Fly Fishing and now I too want to get there someday. My question is, what size gear were you using. Rod Wt, line Wt, Tippet size and what flies and size? Thanks man!

Nicely done Gareth. Never let it be said that you don’t look after a fishery, your track record says it all. Well done, a terrific video in a fantastic location. NZ tourism should be paying you blokes!

What an awesome place to fish. Believe it or not we catch them almost that big on the little Soque river in the north Georgia mountains.

I'd shit my pants if I ever caught a rainbow in this class, and you were slaying them. OMG

Love the drone footage!

Love those marathon trips

Simply amazing!

Awesome video! Especially the drone footage!. What fly line do you use on your nymph set up?

Oohhh theres my backing ohh theres a little bit more had me cracked up 😂

That bruiser in the start was absolutely gnarly!!!

Great...keep it up guys!!

Dam I'm so jealous man. Well done lovely fiah and location (river )

What's the background to these fish. Early spring where you are? Returning to lakes from spawning? Sea run? Just seems unusual so many big fish in one section of water. Great camera work and fishing though. Keep up the good vids.

awesome video and your drone shots were the best i have seen on any flyfishing channel. get some rest and go back and do it again.

Never seen anything like this. Monster rainbows

Understood your reference as soon as you said "Come back" in that voice.😂 you didn't have to say Jack for me to understand 😂

If I'm not mistaken he caught his heen in his neet while fashing lol

Ok guys this is by far my most favorite fishing vid ever !! just one question is this the south island or the north ? . I was In New Zealand back in 1982 to 1984 for Operation deep freeze , Christ Church was the city I must say it was one of the best times of my life , wish I would have fished more then I did . The people there are some of the best and friendly people I have ever had the pleasure to have known . I think I am going to re visit next year after all the covid stuff is over , finally retired and have been telling myself I am going back to spend a month and really see the south island . I know very little of the north island but would love to see it also . please let me know if you might be able to give me some tips on where to go and other info that would help . I have a friend there and im sure she and her husband will also help me . Love your channel , I just subscribed and am excite to see more vids . thank you guys for this eye candy . Bill J

Fishing for mutant rainbows in NZ.....ok, I'd do that. Even if they're kinda freakish. What's the forage base? Bugs? Fish? Steady radiation? ;) My biggest "trout" was a Bull Trout ~10lbs. Hooked bigger, but never landed any. Though pulling bunny leaches isn't really "flyfishing" other than the rod and line....chunking out a 3oz wet lump of bunny fur... Those things are beasts.

Come back jack! Made me laugh out loud. Awesome fish!
