Trout Scout Guiding
New Zealand
Hello and welcome to Trout Scout Guiding!
​
I’m Shelen Scout Boyes, a professional fly fishing guide based in Queenstown, on New Zealand’s South Island. As a Kiwi-American and one of the few female guides in the country, I bring nearly 10 years of fly fishing experience in both Aotearoa and abroad. I'm a registered member of the New Zealand Professional Fishing Guides Association and committed to delivering a safe, enjoyable, and high-quality experience on the water.
Whether you're after a full-day trip, a multi-day helicopter adventure, or an immersive overnight backcountry mission, I’ll tailor each outing to your interests and skill level. From hunting trophy browns to simply soaking up the serenity of wild rivers, I’m here to help make your fly fishing experience one to remember.
​
Let’s see what’s out there.

Fly Fishing Services
1
Full-day
A full day of guiding which would include pick-up and drop-off, river-side catered lunch and an hour of casting instruction before the fishing began.
2
Multi-day
Everything included in a full-days fishing but with multiple days of opportunities to catch elusive New Zealand trout.
3
Overnight
An multi-day, overnight backcountry trip is on just about any fly fisherman's bucket list. You can either hike in by foot or utilize a helicopter to fly into more remote rivers of the South Island. This would optimize fishing time, create more opportunities for larger fish encounters and preview some of the most remote and stunning scenery.
