Thanks LX,
Betty had a big smile on her face when she saw me walking up her driveway, she also lived in Sth Aust (Bellview Heights) for 30 years when she first moved to Australia from Scotland.. before moving to Tassie 20+ years ago,,
Those blackberries were nice & cold, juicy & sweet, I had four handfuls of them..
cheers

Mate, you're living the dream!
If i got a job offer in TAS, I'd finish packing up before I could finish my first beer.
Nice photos, nice fish. Trout heaven over there.

Good one. I've never had a great deal of luck in tannin water. Fish usually seem super sluggish, give a slow kind of whatever follow then slowly peel off. Low oxygen, lot of leaves and foliage breaking down in the water. But for me it's been in no flow water. Suppose if there is at least some flow, even minimal, there is some oxygen replenishment. My mum, now gone, loved trout so whenever I caught some she got some. The smile on her face was priceless so I can imagine the friend of yours being the same. :thumbsup:

Another great trip out Adrian, great report and as always awesome pictorial journey you bring us on. It may not have been ideal, not withstanding Betty's dinner, very generous of you, but six trout is very respectable, definitely 6 more than my tally.
This Little Old Lady, Jan & Dean sang about the one from Pasadena, Betty might have been their follow up song about the one from Sheffield
Or is Betty a bit more rambunctious?

There is no mention of Blackberries finding their way for Pam's breakfast , , , , BUT knowing the bloke you are, I bet the pick of the Blackberries did get to Pam AND with an accompanied batch of meppstas golden pancakes.
Thanks Adrian, always love your adventures and the reports.
Cheers Bill
