About LinkBacksNot often the days off clash with me and the wife so we headed into the Hawkes Bay catchment.
Waipawa looked good but not a bite or a trout seen.
So we headed down further to the Tukituk had a few chases and hits.Then went further downstream below the Waipuk bridge.
And I was on!

First fish of the new season for me. Found a couple guys with spinning rods were ahead of me. Explained the spooky fish.
Picked up 3 for the arvo. Nothing big but still good to get out.
Found this old guy spent in a back water. I don’t think he’s going to make it. Lost at least one eye.

A failed attempt to get the family up the Mohaka for a night or two out resulted in a quick 30min flick under the blue gums while they had a soak in the hot pools. What a cracker of a river and the browns are next level camouflaged over the sand and stone bottom.
Only managed yet another tiddler.
Unsure what fly to try for these ones

Unsure but I'd guess fuck all. There was little damage anywhere I know. The worst was 2016 that smashed the place. Looks like some decent flooding though this winter from Ruahines all the way to Puketitiri Originally Posted by MSL

Catch Any Trout Today?
Tukipo today. Hard work in little water. Really slippery rocks. Even the frickin gravel was slippery. Water quality must be down a fair bit. Still a few fish and quite large for the size of the creek.
Bout 1.5kg just in front of my truck.
Checked out the upper Waipawa in the arvo. Very nice looking water.
Must have missed the memo the fish weren’t home though. Odd to see such fishy water without so much as a sardine in it. Must be the 1080 got them all.

Had a flick around lunch time today sighted a couple in this pool.
Hooked it and it headed straight for the willows,took me about 20 minutes to free the nylon and landed it.

On the board for this season, a tiny wee rainbow probably only 1/2 a pound.
