Re: First Wild Rainbow and likely PB for the ages.

Great fish!
Size wise it looks like one of the recent stockings but it doesn't have the clipped adipose fin you usually see on those fish.

Re: Taponga River

Nice report!
I've got a bunch of red tags in my box but it's just not a fly I ever use. Gotta try them out.

Re: Armadale Angling

Agree with all the above and they have a decent range of fly fishing/tying gear as well.

Re: Snow and rainbows

Nice report and pics! I fished up there a few times this winter, in what I thought were pretty chilly conditions but I never saw any snow.

Re: Redington Classic Trout Fly Rod

Nice review Truedogz, Redington are making some very decent mid range gear these days. I'm still using the Redington 6wt 9'6" combo that I bought a few years back when i first started fly fishing. I mainly use it on lakes these days as I've since picked up a nice 4wt for river fishing but it's still...

Re: Noojee Trout Fishing 20/5/18

Nice report.
I was up there Sunday too, got a few in the 25-30cm range on the fly rod, all on nymphs.

Locating them has been my problem as well. In a river I can locate fish pretty consistently, lakes and open water not so much.

Re: Fly fishing for flathead

I've tried it a few times but the most I've managed was a mullet. :(
I use an 8 weight rod with an intermediate sink tip line, allows the fly to hit the bottom in 1-2 metres of water pretty quickly.
Good luck, post your results :)

Re: Swimming SNAKE & PLENTY Of TROUT

Great video but holy ****, I've never seen a snake do that before! Glad I wear waders 90% of the time I fish rivers.
