Attachment 8129:o
There were three trout in that bit of water,after a plan too fish over the log without losing lures I finally had them where I could fish towards them.:ORLY:
Attachment 8130:wtfsmilie:
I tried rapalas,tobys and veltics but couldn't move these fish.:P
Attachment 8131
Next plan was softbaits still no luck as these trout were clearly nymphing.:omg:
Attachment 8132
Well I had clearly exhausted all my attempts with multiple lures:roll:
So I attached a fly or (monkey):wtfsmilie:
These trout weren't hungry nek minute one of the threesome broke position and struck my flie,hit hard fought well and landed:thumbsup::D
Attachment 8133
The remaining two wouldn't take but that didn't matter now:P:D
Attachment 8134
Well done dundee...
Try a nymph under a bobble float.. very effective
Brilliant Dundee.
Lost the nymph and attached lure. Tonight I was armed with the Monkey on my spinning rod:D
Was targeting a cuppla bright coloured rainbows that I had seen last night but couldn't find them.
So I cast the monkey into this dark pool and he got sucked up by this brown well and truely:thumbsup:

5 hits landed two,neighbour must of had problems the gates are padlocked just means a bit more walking.
Walking's good for you. That trout looks in nice condition.
Down the river for a couple of hours after lunch , got 3 reasonable fish .With a green salad work lunches sorted for the week.
Now I better get them out of the laundry tub before I'm in the shit again with the old girl .
Yeah good condition that one Toby. Way to go Chris:thumbsup:
Got a week of rain coming so better replenish the suppiles.
I guy has got to eat after all Rushy ,only handle so many pies & filled rolls .She be having trout for her lunch too .
The rain will be welcome Mr Dundee ,plenty of duck feed round the dry ponds but enough ducks on the creek to keep me happy .
No mushrooms yet grrrr .
Its got too get drier than a bone before you get mushrooms Chris,we have a few if you want to pull a week sicky for a fish an some mushys.:ORLY:
Rushy I was firing on all cylinders tonight few extra km too walk but worth it:yuush:
Attachment 8739
This fatty was caught on a (instinct lure) 5 pack toby replicas from H&F Dvke
Fought like "Cameron" fiesty bastard!!
Attachment 8740
Had not long gutted this jack and the eels were feasting:omg:
Attachment 8741
Must be plenty of food around. Can you bow shoot eels?
That is a nice trout Dundee. Worth the extra couple of K's. Toby why would you even want to use a bow on an eel. just need a knot on the end of a rope rubbed in some possum guts
Ropes not a bow Rushy :D
Or trout guts on a hook,they a lot of fun on a hand line .
Just had a week off Mr D , back to work tomorrow .Boss might not be amused if I take another week.
