The Source – Tasmania
Tasmania’s unique wilderness trout fishery offers unparalleled variety and challenge for the adventure-driven fly fisher.
Rising from the Southern Ocean, Australia’s largest island provides a varied landscape from alpine moorlands to virgin forest, each hosting a myriad of pristine lakes, rivers and streams. Massive sea trout on the wild West Coast, dry fly fishing in pure rainforest creeks, rafting the fabled lowland rivers and sight fishing in the Western Lakes. These chapters form a cinematic adventure, exploring the history, beauty and diversity of the fishery.
More than a century ago the first trout to be introduced to the Southern Hemisphere were released into Tasmania’s Plenty River, establishing the foundation for fly fishing down-under.
