The very prolific 3lb to 5lb browns & rainbows use the willow root snags & undercut banks to make capture difficult. I landed only 1 fish from 6 hookups.

This size #12 Mayfly Nymph was not what the trout wanted this day. Very small dark coloured #16 & #18's were the go.

A 5lb Carp sifting the algae within a metre of the camera. A sucker for a nymph and a real powerhouse on a flyrod.

This 7cm long Australian Cicada has hatched early this year. Just a few insects can create a deafening song on a hot Summer evening. Large trout cannot resist this easy meal.

Like it or hate it - indicator nymphing works. About to land another 4lb Rainbow from the Haka.

Late afternoon calm on this small surge dam. The 300ft deep main dam is over the hill in the background.
