  • In this video we explore New Zealand's 3 most famous salmon rivers.
    The Rangitata, Rakaia and Waimakariri rivers in Canterbury on the South Island. Those 3 rivers have the biggest salmon runs each year and are the most popular salmon fisheries.
    We check out each river from their mouths to their gorges and look for good access points along the way. We also give a few tips and trick on how to target those large salmon here in New Zealand.

    Great video. Planning a trip from Australia during March the year after next to again try for salmon and your video helped a lot. I prefer to fly fish and your description of the river middle reaches was very useful. Much better than trying to reach the river mouth to join the crowd earler in the season. Thank you.

      Yeah man they fight super hard and are really exciting to catch. The big one that I got on the West Coast was pulling line like a kingie :) Would love to catch one on a fly rod one day but would need to be a pretty heavy salt water outfit.

    How heavy of a lure works best to get to the bottom?

    • @Fishingreminder
      @Fishingreminder  29 днів тому

      depends on the flow but if you only get a few lures, err on the heavier side. Around 20-30 gram should get it down to the bottom.

    Great video. Can you fly fish for salmon in NZ like in Scotland, Iceland, Russia?

    • @Fishingreminder
      @Fishingreminder  Рік тому

      Yeah man sure can. There are some lakes that hold land locked salmon. And also when they run up the rivers to spawn.

    Add the Waitaki to your Canterbury salmon rivers too.

      @@walkintomydream7208 Yes, it's a major salmon fishery. Central South Island Fish and Game or the Salmon Anglers Association will be able to give you information. Better still, head there in March/April.

      Sounds good! Taylors mistake is an awesome fishing spot with lots of rocky structure. Good to hear you can catch snapper there!

    What we should be done when salmon, is harvesting the fish from its eggs and sperm and then replacing that back into the system for futher catches??

    • @Fishingreminder
      @Fishingreminder  2 роки тому

      It seems that with the low water levels and pollution in the rivers, the Salmon spawn has a low chance of survival.

    Those salmon are not indigenous to New Zealand, they were introduced just like with many other species of animals and birds.
