\"\"<\/a>The best thing about fly fishing is the new friends you make\u00a0on the way to chasing libidinous Tongariro steelhead in New Zealand,\u00a0monster rainbows in private Scottish\u00a0Lochs, bad tempered pike in English Rivers, good natured rainbows in Ireland, restless sockeye Salmon in British Columbia … for a travel writer, \u00a0it\u2019s all research, you see. Work just never stops.<\/p>\n

This section reviews some of the world’s most beautiful\u00a0rivers,<\/strong> that provide nourishment for the human spirit and their adjoining<\/strong> lodges<\/strong> that provide accompanying sustenance for the body. \u00a0The lodges where you can take your young family, or your older family –\u00a0 especially the son in his twenties who never calls, or the gen Y daughter with tattoos she can\u2019t show her father … you know the score. Get to know them again and relive favourite experiences while you can. And if the kids are too busy, take along a few old friends. Sit by the fire with a single malt and a good book and make up fishing stories. Works for me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It helps if you have a lodge or accommodation\u00a0where you can feel\u00a0welcome, whether you\u2019re in a new five star luxury unit with spa and a river view, or an old shearers’ cabin\u00a0with kerosene fridge which the host remembered to turn on, as they threw \u00a0with some well used soap in the outdoor shower.<\/p>\n

For new fishing waters it also helps to have a \u00a0guide who enjoys the job – and remembers to bring a camera in case you fluke that magic ten pounder.<\/p>\n

This is where we review the best spots and the best hosts to share them with.<\/p>\n
