Some big Dobsonflies/Toebiters in the sink there Dundee. Do you get many of them at this time of year?

Did you see many trout P38?
Dundee
We saw four trout in the 8-10" range on the Mohaka.
They chased the spinner and had a go a couple of times but never hooked up.
I was using a #4 Mepps but think I should have put a smaller one on.
We went down to Tamamu Bridge on the Tukituki this morning ..... Fished downstream for a couple of hours but nothing encountered here either with the water being very low.
Called it quits when the rain set in. :(
Cheers
Pete
Rain what rain:(
I heard that Dave Herne landed a 10lb rainbow at the Tukituk and released it.
Might have to go and have a fish in the Tukituk ah mr dundee,but theirs plenty where we fish ah.
Got back home at 2130hrs landed one hooked five. Wanted to test PT's scales out as mine have been reading wrong. This rainbow was put back smartly as not big enough so anther trip to the river tomorrow to check scales maybe.:ORLY:

That orange spinner would have stuck out like a sore toe in a shoe shop in that muddy water Dundee.
River has cleared but the 12gauge spinner worked again:DAttachment 20404

None tonight but did see a brown trout that I spotted two days ago that had a distinctive silver mark on its head.
This trout gave chase again but didn't bite,and was 100 metres upstream from where i last saw it.
A 2/3 lb brown if I catch it you will see.:D

Good one Maca those fillets didn't come of that little fatty?:P
Yep all one fish, I debone in a rough sorta way, just for me to eat, butter, salt and black pepper, yum
Lost a rainbow last night and landed a wee one. Cuppla hits tonight on black rapala and lost a good brown.
Roberto the Austrian is in my neck of the woods tomorrow so will see how we go.;)
Looks ok for a trout maca, shame about the drink though
Taupos been great but windy, drives me nuts. Got my gas hot water up and running today, electric HWC out tomorrow, trying to reduce electricity usage, goal is to go solar, $2.10 a day for supply is a tax I'm getting sick of!
Might get another fish tomorrow!
I can say I gave it a little thought and can't think what it may possibly be
