Escape Flyfishing Jeremy Rotchester

Where, What & When

Natal Midlands - hosted and guided fly fishing on still waters and rivers. Our still waters are some of the most sought after and are only used by our clients. Our fisheries are as wild as they get and we stock the best fry available from Peak Trout Hatcheries. Still waters are pristine and offer some of the best bank and wading or float tubing waters. Corporate groups and our annual Lads and Dads days have become popular as fishers learn the art of fly fishing and ethics. The Mooi and Bushmans rivers in the higher altitudes offer some of SA’s best brown trout river fishing. Tugela River - hosted trips to Zingela Lodge targeting the Natal yellowfish (scalie) on some of the best accessible sections of river. This river has it all from long pools to fast flowing rapids and is home to some of Natal's biggest scalies in a section of river below Spienkop Dam. Zingela offers great rustic accommodation on the rivers edge for corporate team building, hosted trips or just a few days personal guiding. Umkomaas River - hosted or guided options on the Umkomaas River at Nyala Pans and Nkonka Lodge, targeting scalies. This is some of the best sight fishing with large caddis hatches at the right time of year. Lower Zambezi - in conjunction with Bains River Lodge on the lower Zambezi in the GMA area a short boat ride from the Zambezi National Park we offer hosted trips to one of Africa’s best kept secrets. This is some of the best fly fishing for tigers and game viewing while casting a fly. Accommodation is luxury and it’s a great colonial experience. This section of the mighty Zambezi gives you the opportunity to land some trophy tiger fish. Slovenia - in conjunction with Hunter Fly Fishing we host trips to fish some of the best rivers in and around Slovenia in search of Dunabian taimen and a wide range of salmonoid species. Slovenia has world class Alpine fishing in the Soca Valley with loads of options a short drive away.

Other Information

Escape Fly fishing was established in 2012 to offer local and international guided and hosted trips to some of the best fly fishing destinations I have traveled and experienced first hand. We manage our own still waters locally to offer you the chance to catch wild trophy trout. All our destinations have been chosen to offer you the best fly fishing experience.

I have personally been involved in the fly fishing industry for the past 26 years, from retail to wholesale. I have been hosting and anchoring the Wildfly television series for the past 10 years and have had the privilege to travel around the globe fly fishing and have been guided myself by some of the best guides in the industry.

Escape Fly Fishing trips are all hosted personally by Jeremy Rochester to offer you a first class experience on and off the water.
