These are intimate, tree-lined waters where you move on foot, read each pool and run as you go, and cast to individual trout feeding in clear, shallow water. One day is enough to understand why river fishing here earns its reputation.
Day trips depart from Hobart and focus on the spring-fed rivers and meadow streams of southern and central Tasmania. They work well alongside time in Hobart, or as a standalone day for visiting anglers who want a genuine Tasmanian river experience. All guiding, transport, gear and a chef-prepared riverside lunch are included.
Single angler - $950
Two or more – $600pp
River days guided by Matt Stone, with locations selected each morning based on stream flow, season and conditions.
All Lowland Rivers packages depart from Hobart, making them an easy fit alongside time in the city.
A chef-prepared riverside lunch using quality Tasmanian produce is included on every day trip.
Rods, reels and locally tied flies all included. Waders and wading boots available on request.

A fly fishing license is required.
The Inland Fisheries Service requires all anglers wanting to fish any public trout waters to hold a current angling license. Licenses can be purchased online through the IFS website, over the phone and in some fishing shops throughout Tasmania.
Tasmania’s main trout fishing season runs from the first weekend in August to the last weekend in April. During this time, most trout fishing waters are open and good numbers of trout can be caught using a variety of techniques to suit the time of the year and conditions on the day.

For dry flies a selection of mayfly imitations such as Possum Emergers as well as other general flies such as Red Tags and Royal Wolfs is a good start. Whilst wet flies such as Woolly Buggers and Streamers are consistently productive.
