    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    OK Dundee, here is what you tell PT to do. Cut down a big bushy piece of Manuka (as big as he can handle by himself). Cut up one of his plucked possums into thumb sized pieces and tie the pieces into the Manuka deep inside the bushy bits. Submerge the Manuka into your river at an easily accessible deep slow part one evening. The next day he should take the Manuka out of the river and put it onto a bank so that he can harvest all of the Koura and put them into a big bucket (he will need a big bucket as there will be shitloads of them).

    Let me know how he gets on.

    Camera was set on tripod and self timer and it was a bit breezy down there tonight. Not a clear pic but still a solid trout.

    Very environmentally friendly and sustainable fishing thing for you to do Dundee. Well done.

    Good Work Dundee's

    I spent the day Fishing on the Mohaka at Mangatutu with my wife.

    We had a few nibbles but didn't manage to land anything.

    I'll post some video of our day out soon.

    Cheers

    Right here's a Video of our Waitangi Day Trout Fish on the Mohaka.



    My wife is a beginner and is using a float bubble with a Hare & Copper Nymph

    I was using a Black Mepps spinner.

    We had a few strikes throughout the day by mostly smaller fish but nothing was landed.

    Still it was a good day out .

    Cheers

    Your not wrong Rushy.

    Took the rifle ..... didn't see any but we got bloody close ...... Heard the crash and found the foot prints complete with a steaming pile of you know what.


    Had a dip in the Hot pools and a picnic lunch too.

    Was an awesome day out.

    Got today off too

    Cheers

    That 10 min flat is a great spot Pete. If you don't get eaten alive by the sandflies.
