    Catch Any Trout Today?

    Lake Tutira fishing well this season. Stocked with strong Rotorua trout.

    Got this jack this evening wearing his full on spawning colours.
    Kept him for the pot.
    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

    Still have to catch up and do a mission there. My casting is super shite at the moment. I have a bad tailing loop (you know the cast that puts knots in your leader) that I need to sort out before I tackle any decent fishing.

    That loop is my middle name.

    Lake Selfe yesterday. As you can see it was gorgeous to be out on the float tube. Mirror calm all day.
    Fish were real deep in the weed beds. 4.5lb jack and a 6lb hen.

    First time on the Tongariro. Magic day in Turangi and what an epic river. Caught a couple maiden hens for the day.

    Uncle managed the Trout Hatchery so I fished it days on end when I was a wee fella in the holidays. Also stayed and was a member at TALTAC is it? A nice place to stay.

    You must know a shortcut then cause Hawkes Bay IS the real bay.
