Treasure

Our custom-built ClackaCraft drift boat, affectionately named Treasure

Treasure is more than just a boat it’s a story on water. Handcrafted in the USA and purpose-built for fly fishing, Treasure is designed to glide effortlessly through Southland and Otago’s most remote waters, getting you where the fish are (and where other boats can’t go).

With a wide, stable hull and shallow draft, Treasure gives anglers unmatched access to hard-to-reach river sections, gravel banks, and backcountry lakes. It’s the perfect platform for stalking trout with stealth and precision.

Whether you’re standing and sight-fishing from the bow, or sitting back as we drift you through pristine landscapes, Treasure offers a smooth, quiet, and comfortable ride for two anglers and your guide.

Trip Style

Treasure is built for fly fishers who crave solitude and wild water. She’s at her best drifting remote rivers and backcountry lakes, where the sound of the oars and the rush of the current set the pace. Ideal for one or two anglers, every trip aboard Treasure is slow, deliberate, and unforgettable – pure, authentic New Zealand fly-fishing.

💬 Captain’s Note

“Treasure has a way of reminding you why we fish – it’s not just about the catch, it’s about the calm. Every drift brings something new: a quiet bend, a rising trout, or just that moment where everything feels still. She’s more than a boat, she’s part of the river.”
