Hemmingways Angling Adventures

Welcome to Hemmingways Angling Adventures, a top fishing charter in Keswick, New Zealand. Since 1993, Hemmingways has been providing unique guided fishing trips and fly casting tuition for individuals, groups, and corporate clients. Nestled in the beautiful lakes and rivers of the English Lake District, Hemmingways offers a memorable fishing experience for anglers of all levels.

At Hemmingways, we catch and release a wide variety of fish, including superb salmon and sea trout, wild brown trout, monster pike from Windermere, occasional charr, and huge perch. Our experienced guides, led by well-known Cumbrian angler and environmentalist Eric Hope, have a lifetime of experience fishing in big fish and wild waters all over the world. With their extensive knowledge and expertise, our guides can help you enjoy a successful day of fishing in spectacular surroundings.

Hemmingways prides itself on fishing the quieter Lakeland waters, providing guests with exclusive access to first-rate fishing spots. We ensure that our guests have everything they need for a day of fishing, including quality fishing tackle, boats where appropriate, good-humoured tuition, full insurance cover, and safety equipment. For a truly unforgettable experience, guests can arrange for our legendary shoreline lunch, featuring delectable food and stunning lake views.

To enjoy a day of fishing with Hemmingways, all you require is an Environment Agency licence for the day, which can be purchased online or at any post office. Suitable footwear and waterproof clothing are also recommended, and a small snack for your guide is always appreciated.

In addition to Eric Hope, we have recruited a team of great guides, including Mike Tinnion, a former England fly-fishing international team manager and Guideline team member, and George Gate, a local legend known for his expertise in perch and pike fishing. Whether you fish with Eric or any of our other guides, you are guaranteed a great day on the water.

For anglers looking to improve their fly casting skills, Hemmingways offers fly casting tuition. Our guides will teach you the delicate art of fly-fishing, from sneaking stealthily into position to casting an artificial fly to a wild trout. This ultimate angling experience is sure to delight any angler.

Cumbria is a world-class fishing destination, and the fishing in this region is as good as the views. With a wide range of options, we know which waters are fishing best and take great delight in providing world-class angling experiences for our guests.
