Boat Fishing at Glen Dene
Lakes Hawea & Wanaka are the ideal spot to spend a few days fresh water fishing.
Fish stocks include brown and rainbow trout, and landlocked Quinnat salmon.
Local fisheries cater equally for the serious fly fisher, the boat angler or the
backcountry fisher. Our guides are available with vehicle support and we also have
helicopter and houseboat and boat support available.
High mountains border these large lakes, with a number of tributaries providing some magical
scenery, water runs from the glacier and High Mountain springs down through beech forest
to the open pastoral land before entering the lakes offering a wonderful range of fishing environments.
Glen Dene Station is located on Lake Hawea with a view unbroken from development 60 kilometres
up the Lake and into the Hunter Valley. Lake Hawea is 35 kilometres long and is 392 meters deep
and has two main rivers feeding the lake, the Hunter and the Dingle both famous backcountry fisheries.
