Had the fishing gear in the truck after bagging my first Tahr near Twizel so decided on a couple of hours fishing near the salmon farms on the canals...not my usual type of fishing but it's fishin and I wanted some trout and salmon to eat.
The big ones aren't easy and to catch them consistently you have to give them exactly what they want/expect to see...I fished soft plastics on very light gear. (Plenty of info for this on the internet)
Some of these big fish have seen it all before and could probably give us casting lessons, so to catch them consistently takes some doing but plenty do get caught.
