From TRM website:
Bio-security
- The Tongariro River and Taupo fishery is free of the invasive Didymo which threatens most South Island rivers and lakes.
- Be sure to CHECK, CLEAN, DRY all your gear before arriving from any other waterways and practice the same between local rivers. See Check Clean and Dry video below for more information.
- A responsible accommodation will supply you with Didymo spray bottles and a bin to soak your waders between rivers.
