So do you fish the Manawatu River, or one of its tributaries @Dundee.
I'm just thinking that it's not a very big river bed for the size of its catchment
Yes Manawatu River but am way upstream of most tributaries.Norsewood catchment and Maungapork are the first to fill it up here. All those tributaries from the Ruahine Ranges are down stream.180km of River way to fill.Quote:

What sort of fish is that
It's a Pike Dundee. Quite the predator....like a fresh water barracuda :o
Rushy doesn't spill Waikato. Waikato is my precious.

Action works really great had the tail and the spare tail bitten off already.

Had a good strike tonight on the mouse and another on red black fury before it started pissing down.
That looks like prime trout and deer country there @MSL
Many trout visible, not so many deer
Managed 4 hours on the water today but nothing hooked,still bloody good to get out there.

Fished the last 2 hours of daylight at jacobs pool and no luck there or upstream but still beats a 14 hr day at work.Attachment 75516
