    It’s been a sewer for the last 20 years. I’m unsure how a few extra days could make a difference.
    I’ve a better chance of taking twins fishing too.

    Would no doubt have been an experience they still treasure.

    Caught a wee sea run trout on the Oreti last night, so back to the water it went.

    This little slab took a size 14 BH PT.

    Missed another one and dropped one.

    Fishing is still bloody hard yackka due to the weather plus the usual Christmas pressure we've had albeit a whole month early!
    Good to get a bend again

    Rock river, they might be hard to catch but they are in 'passable' condition judging by the photo. Have you opened one up to see what they are feeding on ?? The fish here are in good order but empty now that the whitebait have stopped and the beetles have finished their annual flights.
    It also seems that many sea trout have dropped back to the estuarine waters

    I haven't really fished the lower waters much and I haven't really opened one up to be fair but their starting to look quite slabby like this one here with good condition

    Catch Any Trout Today?

    Went for a speed fish this arvo. Surprised how good the fishing was only a few minutes from home. Took one for the Mother and Sister in-law. Bit skinny but still an OK fish at about 3˝lbs. Caught and released another maiden fish that was in good nick.
