Wellington Weekly Fishing report - Fishing regulations for the Wellington Fish & Game

by Fish & Game Wellington 11 Mar 2021 20:35 UTC

There have been four changes to the fishing regulations for the coming season in the Wellington Fish & Game region:

  1. Bait fishing will be prohibited in all waters that close for winter in the Wellington Fish & Game region.

  2. The use of treble hooks is prohibited in these waters. Spin fishing with single hooks is still permitted during the open season.

  3. The daily bag limit of trout has been reduced to two fish on the Manawatu River downstream of Maunga Road Bridge (upstream of Dannevirke).

  4. The daily bag limit of trout has been reduced to two fish on the Ruamahanga and its major tributaries downstream of SH2, and the length of the Tauweru River.

Please make sure you're familiar with all the regulations and bag limits before heading out on Opening Day!
