Yea it spat the hook on the beach quick splash and it was away:)
Had a shit day at work so I pissed off to the river after work to try my luck.
First lure was the @7mmsaum home made lures he gave me and had a few strikes.
Next I tried @Chris home made lure but no luck there tonight mate.
Gotta try a bloody @Toby but that was useless too!
Finished with a rapala and whoop whoop:thumbsup:

That value of that fish falcohell has no boundaries. That photo in your album, will be a treasured moment for ever. You lucky sod. you bloody lucky sod. Bin there and valued that
Nothing beats a Rapala. I was going hard a while ago with a fly gapped axe gave me. Still yet to catch a fish on the bugger
Good fishing Dundee
Anyone sees a size 7 green and orange rapala floating down the Manawatu River attached to a big rainbow trout please return them both as the barstard snapped my nylon. :pissed off:
New nylon tomorrow and rapala and a few more boxes of ammo:ORLY:
Have you tried braid? We have 2lb,4lb,6lb and 8lb on a selection of rods. 4 or 6 is my prefered as 2lb sometimes snaps if you strike to hard. It helps with castin the light rapala lures
Sale clerk of my arm chair atm
Pretty good acutally. I think its time for another hunt and push it a little further. Still doesnt bend too far though has statted beding a bit more in the last week or so almost getting 90 degrees
Find another trout, fed him another rapala but it wasn't the one that got away last night.

Brilliant. Using the hands as a standard of measurement, that is bigger than Dundee's
