Our vibrant club of approximately 70 members was incorporated in 2002 and is based on the Kapiti Coast 50 km north of Wellington.
We are beginners, intermediates and experienced, New Zealand Silver Flies representatives and national champions, young and old, male and female, a number of nationalities. We are a diverse bunch and welcome new members and visitors.
We enjoy good participation at interesting club nights, regular on river days at local waters (we have adopted the beautiful Waikanae River ) and club trips around New Zealand. Previous editions of our club newsletter can be found here. Club members receive email newsletters monthly. Preservation of and access to healthy recreational and life giving waters for all New Zealanders is of keen interest to us and we have been active in our submissions to local and central authorities.
