THE PEOPLE

New Zealand’s backcountry along with fishing and hunting has been a passion within the family for the last 30+ years.

We are very much a family operated business, with the olds hanging around a lot of the time, helping out where ever possible.

Shell and Darrell Haworth aka “the olds” have long been on the scene, and together we have spent decades hunting, fishing and exploring the NZ back country.

These guys are an integral part of our operation as off river support, drivers, caterers, trip planners, photographers and guides who help out with most trips.

We are very blessed to have family involved in our business.
