Bruce and i teamed up for the day, mission – Steve, David and Darcy, wanted to check out what fly fishing was all about??
Of course it is fishing but, quite different to other forms of fishing, what we do is 90% sight fishing, yip we don’t even make a cast until we see a fish.
This changes the game and turns us into more of a hunter fisherman, then just a chuck and chance fisherman.
The weather of late had been rainy to say the least and most of our rivers were high and coloured. Taking a boat to the mouth of a nearby river was the best option, and look for some lake edge cruisers.
