We came home for trout sandwiches and a break then headed out again.
The lad had flogged my scales last night and wasn't put back in my fishing bag.

The two trout were weighed back home and uncanny both were 3.3lb and caught on the same lure.

I was very fortunate to spend a week away on school camp, this is one of two fish caught during my trip. Both on Humpy Blowfly dries, amazing location with crystal clear water.
It was difficult looking after the kids when I knew that I had fishing like this on my doorstep all week.
Took bomber down to the river last night after we finished hay carting.

We saw plenty. I landed three small ones.This bugger gave a good fight just on dark with some amazing areobatics.
Attachment 46775
I reckon the eels were stalking me last night.
Attachment 46776
If that eel grabbed a little midget bugger like you Dundee it would almost pull you under.
It looks pretty damned grumpy about being a fish out of water.Quote:

I have been after this bugger in a favourite pool for two weeks.There are heaps of trout in there but this fulla and his markings have kept me going back.I have three tackle boxes..favourites,next lures and the last box are flys that are used with split shot.
Tonight the bugger had a go at several favourites so I changed a few times and finished in my "next lure" tackle box with the landing lure a "strada"
He put up a bloody good fight I was going to whip me camera out and video it but i'm glad I didn't as the lure dropped from his lip right on the water edge.
I dropped my rod and flicked him up the bank.

Cheeky buggers.We went upstream today at a new access point given by a contractor. Right next door to a fly fishing guide,woops went down his driveway not the contractors. It was shit up there any way only saw 1 trout.
Back to the usual water and I released a giant:P
Attachment 46917
Looks like he has had two escapes there judging by the scar on his flank?
Down the river on daybreak http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...ae549474e3.jpgLanded 8 and brought this nice one home http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...d6913a32db.jpg And caught my first one in the Tamaki while heading home http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...1513e50839.jpg

Bloody ripper Matt;)
Got a 1.5er last night i'm guessing but it went back
Attachment 47065
The farmers that I reliefed for gave me the wrong flavour:ORLY:
Attachment 47067
So only one tonight:)
Attachment 47068
Rotoiti tonight, blowing a gale and then a bloody thunderstorm and pissing rain, no fish, home by 7:30
Caught and released yesterday.
Attachment 47081
What do you think caused the damage to the tail?
60cm in length and only 2lb+. Doesn't look as though it will last much longer.....
Unsure about the tail but that release technique has more than certainly sealed its fate.Quote:
