Overseas anglers are returning to New Zealand in numbers as the sector continues to recover from the pandemic.
Fish and Game says the most recent fishing season saw 13,500 international fishers travel here, which is 75 percent of pre-Covid numbers.
More broadly, the tourism industry is sitting at 50 percent of pre-pandemic levels.
Fish and Game's chief executive, Corina Jordan, spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
