    @jono7 I use naturals year round so cant say if glo bugs will produce or not but there are a few still running/spawning so they may work.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    The condition of the trout is why I posted that picture

    It's a Brown trout from a North Canterbury high country lake caught this week.
    All the fish were in excellent condition and very thick through the body and fat to the base of the tail.


    It must have been a kind winter in there.
    I landed 15 trout in 2 short days of fishing.
    The ones I took were all in similarly good condition.

    I did land 5 small rainbows as well in another lake.
    Very stroppy and all around 1 pound so I didn't take any of them.
    But would have loved too have eaten one for a change
