Tagger

Date: 24 Sep 2017
Weather: Overcast/Drizzly
Crew: Dave
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: - Fly - Royal Wolf #14, Pheasant tail nymph #14
Gear Used: Orvis Superfine Carbon 3w, 7'6"
Catch: 1 Brown
Report: River still flowing pretty hard. Was feeling very tired, and only put in an hour or so. Managed to land a cracking brown, typical of the bigger fish this stream holds. Had a Lyre Bird put on a 20 min show on the river bank - absolutely amazing.
Report: 7/10

Connie

Date: 2 Sep 2017
Weather: Sunny/overcast
Crew: Dave
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: - Fly - Royal Wolf #14, Pheasant tail nymph #14,
Gear Used: Sage Approach 4w, 9'
Catch: 1 Browns
Report: Season opener! Drove up Friday night and solo car camped. Head a pretty rubbish fire on account of some damp firewood. Had a quick flick in the Roys, before focusing on the Connie. Session was looking hot, with a nymph hook-up on the fifth cast. River was flowing very hard.
Only managed a couple of hours in the morning. Had a brief encounter with the fish police, a reminder to all to get a license!
