Welcome to Fly Fishing Heaven
Fly Fishing Travel to New Zealand,
Mexico, Patagonia & Beyond
Isolation Outfitters designs unforgettable fly fishing travel experiences to remote destinations including New Zealand, Mexico, Patagonia, and the Pacific Islands.
We connect fly anglers with the world’s most extraordinary fisheries – from heli-access into backcountry rivers to wading saltwater flats alive with bonefish.
Our itineraries range from rustic riverside camps to refined fishing lodges, all chosen for their access to wild, productive water. Whether you're drawn to the solitude of a high-country New Zealand stream or the thrill of sight-casting on a tropical flat, our trips are built to deliver immersive, memorable angling.
We offer a mix of fully hosted expeditions and independent travel planning – always tailored to your goals, experience, and sense of adventure. Every journey we design is supported by local insight, streamlined logistics, and a deep respect for place.
Along the way, you'll enjoy rich cultural connections, local hospitality, and the kind of thoughtful touches that turn great fishing into lifelong stories.
At Isolation Outfitters, we’re not just building fishing trips – we’re charting new ground for those drawn to the edges of the map.
We call it ‘exploration angling’.

Trips range from overnight escapes to week-long expeditions, with rustic backcountry huts and riverside tent camps serving as your base.
Guided days are spent sight-fishing for large, wild brown trout in crystal-clear streams, while evenings bring the solitude of campfires, alpine stars, and the camaraderie of small groups. We supply all fly fishing gear and camping equipment, making it easy to focus on the fishing and the adventure. This is heli-fishing in its purest form – flexible, immersive, and unforgettable.
