Brown Trout
Brown trout fishing at Rawhiti Estate is a hidden gem for anglers seeking solitude, scenery, and serious fish. The Taieri River winds its way along the edge of the property, offering exclusive access to private stretches of water rarely touched by other anglers.
This quiet, unpressured section of river is home to some of New Zealand's finest brown trout — wary, wild, and worthy of the chase. Whether sight fishing with dry flies or drifting nymphs through deep pools, the variety and quality of the fishing here make for a truly world-class experience.
A Day on the Taieri
The Perfect Balance of Challenge & Reward
The surrounding high-country landscapes only add to the appeal — wide open skies, golden tussocks, and the peaceful rhythm of the river. Whether you're a seasoned fly angler or simply looking to add something special to your hunting itinerary, a day on the Taieri offers the perfect balance of challenge and reward.
Chase a trophy stag in the morning and cast for a wild brown in the afternoon — few places in the world let you do both in a single day.
