Buller is a fisherman’s paradise. Crystal-clear river systems with countless pools make them ideal for trout fishing, both by fly and spinning methods. Whitebaiting is extremely popular in the season around the lower reaches of many rivers, and sea angling can produce some excellent fish for the holiday table also.
