    Jesus @Dundee. Are there any trout in that river that you haven't caught at least once?

    Hooked 4 on Saturday arvo. Only landed one
    Fish appeared to be still in spawning mode as they were paired up a lot of the time with the hens not doing much and the jack chasing around. Those I hooked were the most acrobatic I have ever experienced with the three lost all throwing the hook mid air. Fishing with nearly no barb makes it hard to control. These fish were not huge at around 2kg estiamted but looked in good nick.
