Trout Bum Diaries II: New Zealand: Kiwi Camo

March 11th, 2008 Buster

The guys from AEG media are back and this time they travel to the South Island of New Zealand for a four month expedition to fish for monster brown trout in the backcountry. The movie is 75 minutes in length and will have you hooked after “God Save The Queen”. If you enjoyed the action, scenery, and story of Trout Bum Diaries I: Patagonia, then this movie is for you too. Simply put, the quality of the footage is stunning. The only draw back to the movie is the length of the movie. I was spoiled by the two plus hour movie from TBD 1.

The film shows the trial and tribulations of fishing in a different country and hooking large trout. The guys encounter sheep-induced traffic jams, kayak along the coast, and survive an all-pasta diet-in search of big rainbows and browns, with all the problems, weather, and challenges any angler encounters. If you like dry fly fishing for large trout, you’re going to be jealous with what you see onscreen.
