Bitwenjopit


 
 Date: 27 April 2014  
Weather: Sunny
Crew: Dave 
Target Fish: Trout  
Bait: - Fly - Royal Stimulator #12, Parachute Adams #12, Copper John Nymph
Berley: None 
Catch: 12 Rainbows, 1 Brown
Report: Action was consistent all day. Pulled in a few fish early on with the Adams, then rigged up the Nymph under the Royal. Most fish took the Nymph. I pulled 5 fish out of one pool. Headed up stream to another spot, managed another 3 rainbows. Fish were generally a bit bigger than the usual you get here - with one exception. All fish released
Rating: 10/10

Little Tagger


Date: 19 April 2014  
Weather: Overcast with showers
Crew: Dave 
Target Fish: Trout  
Bait: - Fly - Royal Stimulator #12
Berley: None 
Catch: 2 Rainbows
Report: Action was pretty good. I had a lot of takes, but lost the hook-ups. One fish caught was so small he went flying in the air when I struck. The fish in the photo had really nice colour, the photo doesn't do it justice. Glare made it hard to see the fly. Time to get some polaroids.

Bitwenjopit


Date: 04 April 2014  
Weather:
Crew: Dave 
Target Fish: Trout  
Bait: - Fly - Royal Stimulator #12, Elk Hair Caddis #14, Nymph - Copper John #14
Berley: None 
Catch: 12-15 Rainbows - Small. Lost another 6 or so.
Report: Action was mental. I started a couple of hundred meters downstream of the usual spot. Started off with the Stimulator, onto the Caddis, then when action slowed down put on the nymph (with the stimulator). Two fish rising upstream of the bridge, managed to get a take on one but no hook up. Would have been the icing on the cake, and made the session a 10/10. All fish released.
