The Last Best Place Images of New Zealand

The Last Best Place is a celebration of flyfishing in New Zealand.

In his introduction, Bob South, award-winning editor of Fish & Game New Zealand magazine, makes a case that Zane Mirfin’s superb photography “confirms that New Zealand, head-and-shoulders above anywhere else, warrants

the tag The Last Best Place for flyfishing”. South maintains that Mirfin’s uncanny camerawork allows us all, even the most cynical, to know that, in terms of flyfishing, we’ve certainly come nowhere near the stage where all

is lost here, either in the pollution-susceptible lowland systems, in didymo-invaded mountain streams, or deep in the fragile backcountry. In fact, quite the opposite is true.

Zane Mirfin -- fishing guide, author, and award-winning photographer, has captured the essence of what makes flyfishing in New Zealand unique and special. Over 100 remarkable images reveal the drama, splendour, and

excitement that is flyfishing in New Zealand. The images stand alone as a feast for the eye of any angler - each worth more than a thousand words. Each telling its own story.
