Thread: Tongariro mid~late November

Every few years I get to spend a couple of days at Turangi.

My first trout was 38 yrs ago and it was a 5lb brown, from the Major Jones pool.

Over the years I've been back about 10 times and only ever caught one small rainbow (released).

So my Mojo, has no heft to it, at Tongariro.

I'm proficient with wet fly and nymph and even the dry ones. I've caught Trout almost everywhere else in NZ, I just don't have luck at Turangi.

So I'm going to be there again, mid to end November and I'm wondering if anyone has advice or comments on a "best approach".

I guess the spawning runs will be over by a long stretch and I'll be seeking fish holding in feeding spots.

Wot yer reckon?
