    We saw four trout in the 8-10" range on the Mohaka.

    They chased the spinner and had a go a couple of times but never hooked up.

    I was using a #4 Mepps but think I should have put a smaller one on.

    We went down to Tamamu Bridge on the Tukituki this morning ..... Fished downstream for a couple of hours but nothing encountered here either with the water being very low.

    Called it quits when the rain set in.

    Cheers
    Pete

    I heard that Dave Herne landed a 10lb rainbow at the Tukituk and released it.

    Cheap guiding fee that Dundee.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
