    @Danny. Are you around this weekend? Was going to fish the Waiteti Saturday (tomorrow) morning if you're about. I'm thinking it should start to fish OK by now at the mouth.

    The weather has been good down South over the past week. Fishing on the Waiau River 7pm - 9pm (in the dark).

    Hooked into 7+ fish on Wednesday - landed 4, tossed one brown back to live another day, lost 3+ rainbow after they jumped and spit the fly

    Hooked into 10+ fish on Friday - landed 4, lost 6+, nabbed an eel with knife while cleaning trout

    Major rise going on from 7pm to 9pm - had fish at my feet when I turned on my head lamp !

    Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

    Good question - and YES - I was standing in the bush with waders on so there was no way that I was going to remove the fly until I had the fish under control (dead).
