Cory Scott Fly Fishing Guide

World-class trout, backcountry waters, and a guide who knows them all.
Cory Scott is a professional fly fishing guide in the Tairāwhiti region. With 11 New Zealand championship titles, six World Championship appearances, and over 20 years of guiding experience, Cory brings world-class skill to some of the most remote and rewarding waters in the country.

Based in Gisborne, Cory has unmatched knowledge of the East Coast’s backcountry rivers - wild, unpressured, and teeming with trout. From the legendary catchments of Te Urewera to the rugged runs of the Raukūmara Ranges, these are fisheries few ever reach - and Cory knows every bend, eddy, and rise.
Whether you're a seasoned angler or just stepping into the world of fly fishing, Cory’s grounded approach, competitive edge, and deep local connection make every trip an experience worth casting for.
