Booked a drift boat experience with SVFF for my 10 y/o son and I. Had an absolutely awesome day and can’t thank Jimmy enough for teaching my son the basics and enabling him to land his first fish on Fly! Jimmy is so patient and great with the kids which made the day easy and enjoyable. Jimmy’s passion and vast knowledge definitely is impressive, will be back on the water with him again soon.

It really was a privilege to fish with Jimmy from Snowy Valley Fly Fishing. His passion fishing & delivering for his client is unmatched. Jimmy is patient, professional and great company. The goal was to break the magic meter & Jimmy delivered with this 122cm beast first up. A moment I will never forget. Came as a client, left as a friend. I’ll be back for sure. I highly recommend SVFF⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Another unforgettable day on the river with Jimmy. This guide goes the extra distance to ensure nothing is left out to provide a rewarding and successful experience. If you haven't drifted the Tumut it is a must experience, and Jimmy is your guide to put you onto the fish and ensure you have a great day.
