The helicopter and all the drama was a km away from where I was,we still haven't heard what happened.
Access to river was clear of the young and dumb tonight so I went back down that way.Someone had left their car behind.
Few pics from tonight. Cuppla videos to come but good things take time.

I'm impressed with the quality of trout you have in NZ I haven't seen fish that good since I left the UK then they were in stocked lakes. Can't wait to catch some and get my kids to taste real wild fish

Landed two tonight and were both released.

Just spent all day on the Mohaka teaching my wife to spin fish.
Despite fishing some good pools and runs, and her being a fast learner, no Fish were seen let along landed :(
Can't believe we spent all day fishing and didn't get a single hook up ......... Must be loosing my touch. :oh noes:
Might try the Tuki tomorrow.
Cheers

Maca everything is on a lean. Were you on the piss as well?
Rushy I have given up trying to get photo in the correct orientation, if there's a trick to it I have yet to learn, to correct it would take me hours, so lock your screen and turn your tablet 90 degrees:O_O:

That or your slipping off the edge of the earth in which case there's nothing more you can do. ;)

Thanks Pete I'll spin the camera while I'm snapping! @Pete do you belong to a pistol club in the bay? If so do they have any retired guys shooting mid week?
Pete in Maca's case it is the slope on the dope.Quote:

Plenty of fish seen too.
We had a bloody good time even though the fish weren't biting ( I think your feeding them too much Dundee ;) ).
Mrs P38 is still very keen after seeing the Trout today.
Will keep trying.
Good luck fishing tonight.
Cheers
Pete
@bomber came with me and sean tonight.We fished up stream then went back to Jacobs pool to end the night.
Attachment 44753Attachment 44754

Tight lines:)
Beer waz cold, good strike nearly fouled hooked @Dundee
