Fishing in Lake Taupo New Zealand
Another one from the Archives
On the Last day of June in 2005, One of our corospondents Colin, went fishing while in the Lake town of Taupo, NZ. Managed to hook a beauty of a fish (trout from what he remembers).
It was a bit to short to keep but great video none the less.
Lake Taupo central North Island of New Zealand. famous for its trout fishing & fly fishing
Lake Taupō has a staggering number of activities to choose from all year round and is tagged as the Skydiving capital of New Zealand but thousands more come here specifically for the abundance of brown and rainbow trout fishing, which extends south to Turangi and the Tongariro River. It has an enviable reputation for the quality and fighting spirit of its fish.
Lake Taupō offers many more activities, kayaking, canoeing, wind surfing, scenic flights or sailing and for the adrenaline junkies to get their fix, there is sky diving, bungy jumping, jet boating, water skiing and wake boarding.
There are also plenty of land based activities to keep you occupied, enjoy a wander around the town centre, stroll to the lake side or sample the catch of the day in one of the lively cafes or restaurants.
To the north of Taupō you'll find a concentrated collection of national wonders within a few minutes of each other. Boiling mud and hissing steam harnessed by the Wairakei power station and the clear, blue Waikato River, Huka Falls which are New Zealands's best-known falls, Aratiatia Rapids an outstanding scenic feature of the Waikato River where water is released through the dam 4 times a day showing to visitors the natural path along which the river once flowed. Jet boating to the base of these falls is a truly magical experience.
