About
Tony Hildesheim, the dedicated club sponsor and mentor, found his passion for fly-fishing in the rivers and streams of New Zealand. His journey through the waters of Aotearoa, particularly in Hawke's Bay, has shaped him into an expert guide.
Tony offers an array of fishing adventures tailored for both seasoned anglers and beginners. With a deep understanding of local rivers, lakes, and backcountry streams, he leads fishermen to prime spots where trophy wild brown and rainbow trout reside. Using a three fly nymph fishing rig—a technique involving two nymphs and a dry fly stimulator—Tony guarantees an exciting challenge for fly fishermen.
For those interested in spin casting, he provides guided trips ideal for learners, ensuring everyone has the knowledge and guidance for a successful day on the water. Tony also organises overnight and backcountry fishing trips, complete with riverside accommodation, offering an immersive exploration of New Zealand's natural beauty.
Adding to the thrill, Tony arranges saltwater fly-fishing expeditions targeting species like kahawai, kingfish, tuna, trevally, and snapper. Based in Haumoana, Tony is perfectly positioned to guide trips to some of the country's best trout fishing locations.
