Hi everyone,

We’re sorry to let you know that we’ll be moving to three days a week for the time being, due to an unexpected supply issue. Unfortunately, we’ve been unable to secure our usual supply of fish.

We’re actively working on becoming more self-sufficient to help avoid this situation in the future.

We sincerely apologise to anyone hoping to visit on the days we’ll now be closed, and we hope you’re still able to come by Friday to Sunday.

Please note: Fishing will be limited during this time in order to preserve fish numbers and ensure everyone has a fair chance to catch something.

Thanks for your understanding and continued support.

Welcome to Hook Wānaka, a fishery and eatery located in Albert Town.

At Hook Wānaka, we offer a unique lake-to-plate fishing adventure where you can catch Chinook salmon from our spring-fed lakes.

For just $10, you can hire a rod and all the gear you need. After your catch, our team will prepare it to your liking while you play mini-golf, feed the fish, or relax and enjoy a local beer or wine. 

No prior fishing experience is required, making Hook Wānaka ideal for families, couples, and groups seeking a memorable experience.

We are a must-visit attraction in Wānaka, offering not only delicious salmon but also a variety of non-salmon dishes and wood-fired pizzas.

As the only interactive fishing experience in New Zealand’s Southern Lakes, make sure to check out our website for bookings and further information.

We look forward to welcoming you to Hook Wānaka.
