Report: Was a good trip, didn't bag as many fish as we had hoped for. The hopper session on the Cambden Rivulet was a highlight - sight casting to feeding fish. Pulled an absolute monster out of the same drain as last time too!

Streams hit include:
Mersey - Fished really well
Iris - Pulled the pin after 1hr - was freezing cold
Hellyer - Nice river, managed a few fish
Leven - A little disappointing
North Esk - A little disappointing
St Pats - A little disappointing
Cambden Rivulet - Fantastic!

Managed to lose the GPS, break a rod, and break a tent pole 

Report: 8/10
