    I would guess a shag. Possibly an old injury as a juvenile as it fought really well but I still wasn't going to eat it.

    Wouldn't need to be much of a tsunami to fill your gum boots.

    Good luck with the fishing.

    He's a proper fisherman though and doesn't chuck metal at trout.

    Fair persisting down, headed out, might be last chance for a day or 3. River rose height of can in 1/2 hourStill clean on edges and hooked and lost a couple, then landed 1st brown of the season river rising rapidly after that and bailed home for a spa.

    Was expecting the wind to pick up today so planed to go tomorrow. Sunday had better be a beauty as the wind never really came and Im kicking myself for not getting out.

    Got the slight advantage here of 2km farm river boundary access...depending on wind direction can head to a sheltered section most days🖒
