Waimakariri River

Waimakariri River Fishing: excellent salmon fishing and searun brown trout fishing. Top spots: McIntoshes Rocks, Kaiapoi River mouth. Banana Hole. Good river-mouth fishing. Rainbow trout upstream. Best salmon fishing is in January to March. With March and possibly April being the best months for salmon. Searun brown trout early in season especially near SH1 bridge.

Anton Ortiz caught this salmon at Macintoshes Rocks on 9 March 2016. It weighed 12.4lbs making it a bit smaller than a 21 lbs salmon Anton caught the previous week.
