Three Unforgettable Journeys

New Zealand · Montana · Patagonia

At Goulburn Valley Fly Fishing, we don’t just run overseas trips – we create small, highly personal adventures built on decades of experience and relationships.
Each journey is limited in numbers, meticulously planned, and hosted by Anthony Boliancu himself – ensuring every guest enjoys the same care, attention, and authenticity that has made GVFFC a trusted name for over 30 years.

New Zealand – January to April 2026

Southland Serenity. Wild Browns. Time Slows.

Base yourself in Southland and fish some of the clearest trout waters on Earth. Our legally licensed operation (DOC concession valid until 2033) combines local knowledge with Australian-style hospitality.

1:2 guiding ratio for maximum personal attention
Seven-night, six-day packages based from comfortable riverside cottages
Sight-fishing to wild browns in pristine streams within 5–60 minutes’ drive
Just a three-hour flight from Australia’s east coast
AUD $5,750 per person

Montana – June & July 2026

Big Sky Country. Legendary Waters. Unmatched Access.

Over 13 days and 12 nights, fish three iconic regions: the drift-boat-friendly Missouri River, the varied waters of Dillon, and the alpine beauty of Yellowstone National Park.

Our long-standing relationships with local guides mean you’ll enjoy prime water, premium lodging, and seamless logistics.

Three trips: June 21–July 4 & July 5–17 & July 19–31 2026
Only 4 guests per trip, each with a private room
9 days guided fishing plus a hosted evening drift with Anthony
USD $9,500 per person

Patagonia – November 2026

Trevelin’s Pristine Wilderness. World-Class Guiding. Rustic Luxury.

In partnership with Patagonia River Guides (PRG), we’ll spend a week at their Signature Lodge at Trevelin – a five-star base amid a ten-acre vineyard and gardens.

From there, each day is a new river: spring creeks, emerald rainforest drifts, trophy stillwaters – all private or lightly pressured.

Dates: November 21–28, 2026
Price: USD $9,900 per person (single occupancy, fully inclusive)
Up to 14 rooms secured – PRG’s prime weeks book a year in advance, but our relationship guarantees us Thanksgiving week in perpetuity
1:1 guide ratio on walk days, riverside gourmet lunches, and evenings of fine dining, wine, and camaraderie

Why GVFFC?

These aren’t off-the-shelf travel packages. They’re the result of decades on the water, long-standing relationships with the best guides and lodges, and a philosophy that quality is never compromised for quantity.

With Anthony hosting every trip, you’ll enjoy:

Seamless organisation from enquiry to homecoming
Exclusive access to prime dates and locations
The same care and attention whether you’re sight-fishing a Southland stream or drifting under Montana’s big sky

Drift boating down the Goulburn is a great experience. I will do it again and I suggest you do it also.

I have been fly fishing for trout in the south Island of New Zealand for a few years now with the GVFFC boys. These are true professionals and totally committed to ensure that all anglers get the most out of the weeks fishing trip. All l have to do is get to queenstown. All transport, accommodation, food, guiding and flies are provided. I am booked for a week in 2019 and cannot wait. If you are looking for a great weeks fly fishing pristine new zealand rivers and stalking large trout these are the blokes to contact. Mal F

Absolutely great experience doing the one day learn to fly fish course. Anthony taught us to cast in the morning, salvaged lunch when I messed things up, and got us both to catch fish on dry flies on our first time fly fishing. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn to fly fish. The instructor knew the river like the back of his hand, had access to all the properties and seemed to know the fish on a first name basis. Thanks for the great day on the river. I hope to come back and learn more after Christmas. PS- Seeing platypus in the wild was a real bonus 👍

Been a regular client with Ant and the crew for years now. There really isn't much they don't know about fly fishing. They go out of their way above and beyond every time to make sure each drift is rewarding and unique. Hopefully I will be regular for years to come. Thanks.

drift fishing on the G with antony is one of the finest fishing experiences i've had. antony will not only put you onto fish but improve your fish craft and insect knowledge in one session. you will be a better fisherman/woman after this tranquil, informative and exhilerating experience. antony and his team care deeply about the river and are not looking to exploit it's fishing - rather to preserve it. i wish i could say the same about all guiding operations. thanks again antony - looking forward to the next one.

The guys at GVFFC are simply the best when it comes to fly fishing and guiding the Goulburn, Rubicon, Steavenson and other rivers in the area - nobody else comes close. I was lucky enough to have a day of guiding on the Goulburn recently, and their knowledge of the river is nothing short of incredible. I consider myself a fairly experienced fly fisher, but the level of advice and expertise they were able to offer was really eye opening. Everything from reading the water, to new tactics, to local knowledge of trout behaviour and which flies work best in which conditions - it's amazing just how much they can improve your fishing. To top it all off, they're great guys with a real passion for sustainable fishing. Do yourself a favour and book an experience with them - you won't regret it.
