    I have a spring creek here that has several double digit browns in it on private land. If I have to find you a cham, you can show me how to fish it.
    Just dont play that retarded Russian night club music while we are fishing

    One fatty today. Took me out past the backing. I thought I had hooked a horse but unfortunately I had instead snagged this girl in the tail which changed things a bit.
    Local creek must have seen a bunch of pressure as there was no chance for the slightest mistake.

    Having a test hoon with a Radian 6 wt.

    Turns out it has mythical powers- after not having caught a brown in years I landed 3 todayName: 20200120_153050.jpg Views: 402 Size: 3.38 MB

    This one being the biggest. Plus I landed a 1lb bow that I popped back.

    All on Copper John's or Royal wulfs.

    In some wind that was in cooperative to say the least at times and some rather technical casting being required.

    Think I'm sold on a radian now ;-)

    Classic.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Was running early the other morning. First cast bounced the Tassie off one of the piles, breaking a wing off. Started swimming like a demented wounded something. Nek minit, snagged on something.

    That’s a very fresh looking fish. Are you close to the sea for that hen? I’d bet it tasted good

    Couldn’t be further away if you tried. Caught in the canals, and never tasted salt.

    First trout on my new Epic 690C (built it from a kit). 2.2lb rainbow on a cicada imitation. One of two landed for half a day on the river - fishing wasn't wild but very happy with how the new rod performs.

    Last minute plan to fish a new river I had wanted to fish for a while. I planned to pick up a mate at 5am to get a early start but I slept in so started off poorly.
    All was saved though, with the first fish in the confluence straight off the bat. We were on for a good day. I was nymphing and my mate was running a cicada. This proved to be a good duo as I could fish deeper and he could work the more delicate areas with the dry. All up I think we landed about a dozen fish both browns and rainbows. They were angry fish when caught, jumping a lot and not giving up in a hurry making for some real exciting fishing.
