The Tutaekuri River winds through the Hawke's Bay region, offering anglers over 130 kilometers of diverse and fishable water. This river is a significant part of the region's trout fishery, known for holding both rainbow and brown trout. The character of the river changes along its course, from the upper reaches where large rainbow trout can be found, down to the lower sections which are home to large sea-run brown trout. While it may not be as famous as the nearby Tukituki River, the Tutaekuri provides a substantial and rewarding angling experience for those who explore its length.
