TESTIMONIALS

Here’s what some of our happy clients say about their Trout Territory fly fishing trip!

“Hi Gary and Fiona, We wanted to say thank you so much for arranging and taking us on an amazing Fishing Trip during our recent holiday in Tassie! The booking process was quick and simple, nothing was too much trouble and the lunch, drinks and sweets provided by Fiona were wonderful. The casting lessons, knowledge and experience that Gary shared with us on the day was so great. I could not believe we could all cast by the end of the day including our 10 year old son. We all had such a wonderful time and to top it off catching the Brown Trout was an amazing experience and one that I can now tick off my Bucket List. However we all had so much fun that we will be back next time we are in Launceston Tasmania. Thank you both so very much for a truly wonderful lifetime experience as a Family!”
. . . . Vikki Lutz, QLD, Australia

“Had an excellent time with Gary! Complete novice, no idea what I was doing and he showed me the ropes! 5 stars, a great Tasmanian experience!”
. . . . Mitch, Tas, Australia

“Hi Fiona, I just want to say thank you to you and Gary for the experience. From your organisation of things to Gary’s expertise it was an experience I thoroughly enjoyed. His knowledge of everything fly fishing is exceptional, I took away a lot of small things from the day that will help my fishing in the future. Please pass on my gratitude to Gary.”
. . . . Lee Rundle, Tas, Australia

“Just to thank you again for your patience, and bravery, in between two very green fly fishos, we had a great weekend, and come away with some handy hints”.

. . . . Darryl Hart, ACT, and Dave Goodwin, NSW, Australia

“We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and have learnt so much. Now I find myself looking at flying bugs and trying to figure out what they are….. The food you provided for us was delicious. Gary’s enthusiasm was awesome to watch and his patience with teaching was impressive. Thank you again for a wonderful experience.

. . . . Bev and Mike Cotton, SA, Australia

“The guys chatted last night about what a great time they had at the lake and again wanted to thank you all for being great hosts and patient instructors!”

. . . . Michael James, Carers Tasmania

“Gary, we really enjoyed spending the weekend with you and Scotty both on land and in the water chasing fish and would like to say thank you.

The experience both of you have ensured we had a great time. Some of the ways we appreciated it include:

  • Seamless booking process.
  • Being personable, patient, friendly, positive and non-critical.
  • Spending time with basic casting skills so our time on the water was more beneficial.
  • Teaching us to take the time to read the water before making the first cast.
  • Beautiful, fresh lunches.
  • Assisting with the range of skill levels we had as a group.
  • Showing us the skills required to fish from a stream, lake foreshore and boat.
  • Getting the best out of the conditions.
  • And most importantly how to cook fresh trout!

Thanks again – we had a great time. Mick, Adrian, Pete, Scott and Tony.

. . . . Scott Carter, Castle Hill, NSW, Australia

“Thanks again for a great learning experience on the day and plenty of bragging rights with the 5 pounder – my arms won’t stretch wide enough when I am explaining how big he was. Almost defrosted the freezer as well – he was too big to fit in and I didn’t realise the door wasn’t shut properly – found out just in time.”

“Dear Fiona, Thank you very much! We had a great time, and really enjoyed our day. Gary was fantastic and gave excellent tuition to Paul and Al on trout fishing generally, and to us all on fly casting. The lunch was also great! We hope to see you both again in the not too distant future.”
. . . . Tim Reeves, Geelong, Vic, Australia

“Hi Gary and Fiona. Thanks again for making my trip to Tassie such a memorable one. You took care of me as if I was your own father; fishing me out of the water when I had an unscheduled swim, drying me out and encouraging me to catch more fish. The food esky was great (thank you Fiona!) I came away a much wiser fisherman . . . . I hope that one day I might return and do it all over again.”
