Johnny Part of the United Kingdom, lands this gorgeous 8+ lb brown trout his first day out. He's still fighting jet lag, yet it doesn't seem to slow him down a bit! This is the man that has landed over 70, that's seventy! brown trout over 10 lbs. within the last 20 yrs. fishing here in New Zealand. Quite a feat for this part of the world! Our Johnny, is a joy to watch....

Scott and Leya are excellent hosts, in a wonderfully maintained and quality built world class fishing lodge. My son Zack and I took a week and stayed at River Haven. We were limited by my son's short time away, so our experience although excellent, was too short. Take time to be with River Haven more than a week. You'll be glad you did. Even though this was my son's first fly fishing experience, our guide was able to get him on a fish and was able to experience New Zealand Brown Trout on the fly rod. EXCITING!! The welcoming feeling, accommodations, atmosphere, meals, professional fishing guide service, and overall experience was simply outstanding for a father-son trip, or for anyone. I highly recommend the River Haven experience to anyone looking for a great fishing experience in as beautiful a landscape and with as friendly hosts as you will find anywhere. I look forward to visiting my friends Scott and Leya again soon.
