Another Upper Coliban Res report

[TheNix]

I gave the Upper Coliban a go yesterday even though it was blowing a gale. For some reason the wall was closed to fishing (anyone know why?), so I ended up at the Premier mine road end. I ended up with a brown trout about 11", a rainbow trout about 6" and a chunky redfin about 12". I also dropped another brown (about the same size as the one I caught) at the net. Considering that they were probably the only bites I had all afternoon, that's a pretty good strike rate. Tiger worms got the browns, a large scrubby the redfin and maggots the rainbow.

I like your style TheNix, always bring a variety of bait , , , , If the meat doesn't get em , , , , the three Veg does. And a mixed haul too.

But love the Ol' School , , , , inches over millimetres or grams

I'm a bit more , , , , "less accurate" than that

Cheers, Bugatti , , , , photos only catch you out on a lie

Well done mate!
Doesn’t sound like a bad session to me.
Cheers :thumbsup:

@Bugatti I'm metric in the vast majority of things (hell, I teach maths), but fish are commonly expressed in inches. Also, I never accurately measure fish I intend to let go; I net them, snip the line and let them swim away without touching them if possible.

Nothing wrong with that session Nix
Better than doughnuts

As if the wall is closed to fishing, it's the only place where I don't get snagged every third cast!
