🎣 New Onboard Sports TV Setup at Queenstown Fishing

There’s something pretty cool happening onboard this winter at Queenstown Fishing 👀

We’ve just started upgrading the boat with a new smart TV and sound setup, meaning guests can now:

🏉 Stream live sport
📱 Cast from Apple or Android devices
🎵 Play music playlists onboard
📺 Mirror screens straight to the TV
🍻 Kick back with a cold brew while your favourite game rolls in the background

Whether it’s:

  • Super Rugby
  • NRL
  • UFC
  • Cricket
  • League
  • Fishing shows
  • YouTube highlights

…you can now bring it onboard while cruising Lake Wakatipu 🎣

Fish, Footy & Cold Brews 🍺

Picture this…

A couple of rods out the back.
Snow on the mountains.
Your favourite team on the screen.
A hot feed or platter onboard.
Cold brew in hand.
Good crew. Good yarns.

That’s the kind of winter sessions we’re building.

Because sometimes the best fishing trips aren’t just about chasing trout — they’re about kicking back, relaxing, and enjoying the full experience with mates and family.

Stay Connected on the Water 📶

We’ve also added fast onboard WiFi, helping guests stay connected while out on the lake.

That means you can:

  • stream sport onboard
  • upload photos instantly
  • post stories & reels
  • stay in touch with family
  • or even live stream the moment your mate hooks up 🎣🔥

Because let’s be honest…

Half the fun is live streaming the hookup while your mates are stuck at work 😎

Built for Groups & Private Charters

The setup works especially well for:

  • private groups
  • corporate trips
  • mates weekends
  • winter fishing sessions
  • family charters

Imagine trolling for trout while the rugby’s playing in the background, lunch is getting passed around onboard, and someone’s already uploading the catch photo before the fish is even in the net 🤝

That’s pretty uniquely Queenstown.

Why We Added It

At Queenstown Fishing we’ve always believed the trip should feel bigger than “just fishing.”

It’s about:

  • the atmosphere
  • the laughs
  • learning something new
  • being out on the lake
  • and making memories people actually talk about afterwards

The fish are still the priority…

…but fish, footy & cold brews onboard certainly don’t hurt 😎
