One greedy fish! Fish and Game tagged and released this fish on the 14th of Jan 2026 from the upper Tekapo River Spillway, and at the time of tagging it weighed 1.18 pound. The fish had put on approximately 7.82 pound in 208 days which is very impressive! A great catch Tim. Well done.

The Mackenzie Canals are a bucket list destination for so many anglers. The scenery and chance to catch a massive trophy trout makes it such a special place. There is no better feeling as a guide than seeing the delight on clients faces when they land the fish they had spent so many hours planning and dreaming about.
