    How did you go? I was going to fish the Ngaruroro this arvo but figured I'd go the Tutaikuri. It was quite hard, made harder by me hooking only trees and willows. That would have been a good walk back to Puketapu.
    The water is very clear and the fish must have a bit of pressure on as they were not out of the deeper holes and backwaters and were quite easy to spook. Still some good fish seen though. All my old haunts have changed a bit since last visit with one good hole blown out altogether.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Fished up Mangaone river.. puketiri Rd bridge?this morning saw a couple of good ones no takers only had an hr or 2..
    I got a pretty good wife so a oneway walk yesterday,....most fish caught in shallow water below rapids best was about 1/2 way near a access point hooked 5 or 6 fish. Awesome river system I was actually surprised I didn't see any other fishos at all..

    @bomber dropped off a token box of bombers to come fishing in the upper Manawatu River.We started at Jaycobs pool and fished upstream.I landed a small rainbow but no photo was taken.
    Bomber decided to carry on fishing on the clay ledge while I went up over the top before we got to our next spot.He clambered up the steep bank.

    We fished a bit more with a few trout sighted and around one of the bends on the river a few ducks were sitting about 150 metres upstream.I dropped my rod and let a shot off with the shotty,three ducks flew back towards us and one went down in a blackberry bush.Bloody old dog went in nothing happened then i fired another shot into the bush the duck made a run for the river and i put another shot in to stop it.
    Deaf dog found duck and started munching
