Korea
Overland I - Full Day
Flick dry flies to cherry trout on mountain streams. Trout fishing for Korean cherry trout requires patience, perseverance and lots of floatant to keep flies riding high. Overnight camps are client favorites. Rental rods and tackle are available for anglers travelling on the lighter side.
Japan
Taimen - III Day
Fly Fishing Japan is truly a mixed bag of gamefish opportunities from the exotic to the ordinary, you’ll find it here in Hokkaido. Fly fish for Japan’s colorful iwana char, miyabe char, yamame “cherry trout” white-spotted char, and the chance encounter with an elusive Sakhalin taimen.
Korea
Overland II - Two Day
Fly Fish Korea’s more remote high mountain trout streams for landlocked cherry salmon and streamborne, non-native rainbow trout and seasonal opportunities for chum salmon and Pacific searun dace. Rods and tackle are available for anglers travelling on the lighter side.
Mongolia
Taimen Camp
Taimen will hunt down prey and attempt to pack on as much weight as possible. Winters in Mongolia are harsh. The taimen, Siberian trout, and Amur pike will all be in competition to smash your flies. Not to say the fishing is too easy. At times, taimen can be mysteriously elusive.
Mongolia
Taimen Camp II
“Swinging flies is a lot of fun but nothing beats the titanic mouse fly. The first strike from even a small taimen on the surface is an incomparable fly fishing experience. Staff and guides always started early and worked late to keep us feeling like a VIP the entire trip”

“While stationed in Seoul, South Korea I had the opportunity to go fly fishing with Far East Fly Fishing Co. for a couple of days on an overnight camping and guided fly fishing trip. We had a great experience with our guide. Over the course of two days, we explored S.Korea’s northern rivers and caught several species of trout and colorful chubs on the fly. As an avid international angler, I would highly recommend booking your next trip with Far East Fly Fishing”

“I had an amazing trip! As someone who has fished A LOT but with not much training, my guide was able to explain concepts easily on how and why what methods worked. It was also great to see our guide truly invested in the conservation of the area around him. I 100% recommend this to anyone visiting Northeast Asia for fly fishing. It’s an amazing way to discover and connect with a foreign country. Fish at least two days and go for the camping option.”

I fished with Matt in Mongolia when he was rowing a boat in Northern Mongolia as a young guide several years ago. It’s been several years since that epic trip to Mongolia but the memories are fresh as yesterday. The crew Matt worked with at the time was Fish Mongolia and soon after he opened Far East Fly Fishing after our fly fishing trip. I wish him the best of luck and hope to book a trip to Japan this year. Best luck to all fly fishing in in Japan & Korea.

“I booked two, overnight camping trips / Fly Fishing Overland II trips. I got on cherry trout and some crazy rainbows during my stay in Korea. My guide Matt was resourceful and accommodating no matter the circumstance. From trouble navigating public transport to picky trout not cooperating, Matt was there with a solution. Most importantly, it never felt as if he was just my guide.The owners Matt and Nami are wonderful people that I’m happy to consider as friends”

“I highly recommend Far East Fly Fishing. I had an exceptional guide who is extremely knowledgeable not only on the art of fly fishing, but on the biology and ecology of South Korean native fish. My day in Korea was spent exploring some beautiful streams in a scenic ravine where I caught a lot of trout. It was one of the most exciting days I have ever had on a small creek. My trip with Far East reignited my long dormant interest in fly fishing. I’ll be back!
