40 years ago we used to drag the net down Lake Reserve, out of Featherstone towards Lake Ferry. Fresh water lake buggered by the Rumahanga? River diversion, 30-35 flounders a drag, two guys on each pole and one behind to free any snags. Big fire on the beach, few beers and a feed. We used to get around 70 then enjoy the night.used to get the odd trout and perch, could always hear the perch in the net when your ear was against the pole.
