The Fly Program will help you find the perfect spot along Thredbo River. Or if you'd prefer, you can venture out to the many back country creeks and streams in the park.

Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned fisher, you'll benefit from Matt's passion and knowledge of the Kosciuszko region.

Fly rods, reels and waders are all provided, along with pick-up and drop-off from nearby accommodations in a modern 4WD. Top-quality flies are also supplied, some custom tied for the region. All snacks, meals and refreshments are included.
