Sunrise on the Canals Sunday morning. Starting to get cold, fishing is very hard at the moment with one old boy telling me he had been there for a week and got no fish and one bite.
Water flow was good but for the most part very dirty. Spoke to a guy working on the fish farms at Ohau C and he said it was dead. He expects it to improve as the weather cools off and hopefully the water gets better.
A noticeable lack of camper vans both on the drive over and at the canals themselves .
I was lucky and using the right colours softbaiting and caught 3 trout , all pretty bloody skinny and all were released.Attachment 133631
The Lake fish I’m catching at the moment are in fantastic condition.
The fish this season are in fantastic condition from everywhere I've caught them...Quote:

The fish will still be biting when "Lockdown" is over.

Dundee how are you managing the withdrawal symptoms? Trout fishing and that god awful Lion Brown shit you drink.
I think you only have symptoms if you withdraw.
. That is true and I forgot that in Dundee’s case Lion Breweries has a separate production facility with a conveyor belt to his gate. Ha ha ha haQuote:

Good on ya @Dundee I'm sure they'll be well appreciated! Bloody creepy looking things once they're dried and salted, but they go a long way! What caught my eye was the blade on that Mercator! Deliberate sharpen or you just worn that thing right down? Takes a lot of work to do that!
Its worn down @Pixie Z but I do like to keep my knives sharp.The guy just told me 4 headskins will keep him going for a while.My target was 8 before level 2.
On the board at Covid Level 3 .
