<h4><strong><span style="color: #999999;">The South Island is well known as perhaps the best brown trout destination in the world.</span></strong></h4>
<h3><strong>It offers rugged, remote backcountry fishing, in some of the most beautiful settings imaginable. While catching fish in the 4-6 pound range can be expected for most anglers, landing a double digit brown shovelhead is a true test of skill − rewarding anglers who earn it − leaving unworthy anglers in frustration. </strong></h3>
