A typical itinerary would include:
Airport transfers and casting lessons on the lawn or a wildlife excursion that evening.
Dinner is served in the restaurant from 5:30pm until 8:00pm with the hotel amenities open until 9:30pm (depending on the time of year).
A guiding day starts with a small continental breakfast in your room with the guides knocking on the door for a 9:00am start.
Fishing commences after a fifteen-minute to one-hour drive and continues throughout the day, returning at 6:00pm so that you can freshen up for dinner.
Your host, Jason Garrett, will greet you during the stay (in most instances on your arrival at the hotel).
Concluding your visit, if time allows, you will enjoy some sightseeing on your way back to Hobart, including a possible stopover at a wildlife park or the famous Plenty hatchery.
The Area
Miena is nestled at the southern point of the Great Lake, the largest Tasmanian waterway sitting on a highland plateau at 3,000 feet. Within proximity is the Western Lakes area on the edge of a World Heritage National Park and home to over 1,000 tarns or small glacial lakes that are shallow but filled with wild brown trout.
Nestled at the bottom of the Cradle Mountain Lake St. Clair National Park is Lake St. Clair, the deepest lake in the southern hemisphere with a depth of 720 feet. This idyllic fishing location is world class if the right conditions prevail.
Our extensive summer mayfly hatches, spinner falls, and terrestrial falls of beetles makes the land of a thousand lakes a most attractive and inviting prospect. Connected by crystal clear streams, this is a place of breathtaking beauty that few Americans experience.
Come visit, and we won’t just give you jet lag, but we will pack your days with amazing memories. Waking up on this side of the world is an experience of a lifetime.
