Haven't done alot of fishing this year as chasing Sika is too much fun. Finally got out for a fish back down south on the Oreti and landed two nice browns, one just over 4lb and one just under 6lbs which is my biggest to date.

A few more trout from the last week,all on the Manawatu River.
Mrs Dundee landed her first for 2021.
The rest were caught by me with Bo at my side.
This one was not much bigger than the lure.
Bo spotting trout.
A few more rainbows.
49 trout were kept for 2020."Thats not a knife, this is a knife"

Probably just envy but I do wounder if your arms are as stretchy as your rangefinder! Maybe these as small as the first example

A few small ones that went back,caught on the joe fly.
Went down to Balance at Manawatu Gorge but fishing was buggered as the Mangahauo Dam was released!
Tryed another spot upstream by a village called Kumeroa.
