Trout
Trout The various species of trout were introduced, but unlike rabbits, stoats, wallabies, possums, goats and the like, trout has not turned around and bitten us in the backside.
Our pristine waters have proven an ideal environment for several species of trout, which have acclimatised well.
And unlike England, trout and trout fishing is available to all Kiwis prepared to buy a license, rather than just a privileged few. Trout are available throughout New Zealand and countless visitors have been attracted to our shores in pursuit of them; following in the footsteps of noted writer and angler Zane Grey, who fished here and wrote about his experiences in the late 1920s.
