What are the survival rates for trout released?
Like do they all live? All die? 50/50?

I wouldn't know exact numbers by it is going to be relative to the stress and handling of the fish.

so I guess there a good chance for most. My technique for release follows that outlined in my last linked post.
Both fish posted lying in the stones I wouldn't give better than 10% chance of living if I was betting on it.The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice.

I probley had ten takes on the cicada, the last three days, none stuck for more than a few seconds, I know count to three, but when a big brown rises from the depth, its hard to wait long enough, dam it, always wait till they have turned back down, but some times it still doesn't work out.
exciting stuff, when it all comes together.

Last night @bomber and @mrs dundee joined me at the river. A few bombers were harmed but no fish were released or harmed.

I started off with the cicada tonight and it was so bloody hot I left my high vis t shirt on the other side of "Jacobs pool" so I could find my way back.
Hiked down to "Tank pool" and saw some beautys.
Cicadas were screaming but no action. Heaps of trout there tho
Tried my new back fury I got today and nup
Then put on this old one
Got a small one out of "Snobs pool" while 7 to 13 bigger trout never showed attention.
Quick photo,finish my beer and released it when the eels got it

Is anyone in the Rotorua / BOP area interested in joining me for a night fish? The last 2 nights I've been out i've hooked 11 sizable browns but have been unable to even land one. The buggers seem to know every bloody tree and snag to break me off on and a little help to land them would be nice haha

That is bull shit bomber you were taught by the spin fishing guru Originally Posted by bomber
I also told you to put your thumb over your bomber when climbing down a steep bank so you don't spill it.
