| Description |
Prince Charles and Princess Anne accompanied the Queen and Prince Philip on the 1970 Royal Tour. But for a few days (19-22 March) they had a holiday in the Rotorua/Taupo area. Princess Anne enjoyed some horse-riding and sightseeing, while the Prince was treated to "some of the finest fishing" he had ever experienced, hosted by the Wildlife Service. They stayed at Moose Lodge, on the shores of Lake Rotoiti. On 20 March the Prince was taken to Waihaha on the west of Lake Taupo, and caught a 5lb trout trolling on the lake (see attached image of the party on the boat, and also the list of equipment that was provided for him to use). The Prince then fly-fished the lake and the Tongariro River. On the 21 March he fished the Wheao and then the Whirinaki, where he met with young conservationists from Tokoroa, Kawerau and Murupara. He finished the day fishing until 10pm at the Waihaha river mouth, having caught 7 rainbow trout from 4¾ to 6½ lbs. The local Conservator remarked "I found him intensely interested in conservation and all aspects of the natural environment."
