    Fishing Tomorrow

    Upper Waingawa (Eastern Tararuas) for three days. Weapon of choice: Scott Radian 6wt. I haven't got out much with this rod yet, so this will be an opportunity to give it a good work out. Will take both 6wt and 7wt lines to see it I prefer having it overlined as some do. I'm expecting a reasonable number of hook-ups on 3-5lb browns. Hopefully no-one else in there, though there is plenty of water to divi up if there is.

    Sometimes the fishing is too good! First couple of drops yesterday morning and enough fish for the week. Now what? Very short fishing trip.

    Hey ,
    Do any of you other lads with sea salt in their blood , do well off the set line but do absolute crap off the rods ?
    Go out off wanags and do alright but could do alot better , pretty much saved by the fact we have set lines down.

    Some days its the only way you catch them, then other times you do great on the rods and piss all or nothing on the longline.
