University River

Date: 30 Nov 2014 
Weather: Sunny
Crew: Dave
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: - Fly - Parachute Adams #12
Berley: None 
Catch: 4 Browns
Report: I'd hit the upstream sections of this river a couple of times on spinner without success. This section is close to the Tangip. Was a hard river to fish. It was quite deep in places, and the river bed was made up of inclined slippery rocks. The water was a bit murky - though it looked like it had rained earlier in day. Managed a few fish.

Cumerbund Creek

Date: 23 Nov 2014 
Weather: Sunny
Crew: Dave, Parko
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: - Fly - Parachute Adams #12, Clink Hammer #14, #16
Berley: None 
Catch: 7 (ish) Browns
Report: First time at this river. Water was low and very clear. Fish were very spooky, trick was to cast with at least 1 pool between the target. Had a lot more takes, but late strikes resulted in failed hook-ups. Had a platypus surface and have a look at the fly line - was crazy! Will hit again.
