Any photos you got to share... then share them...

I am thinking of doing some flyfishing there for a day in a couple of weeks on a stream around Rotorua. This one seems ok. Anything else worth visiting?

------------------------------------------------

Ive only fished it a handful of times during the winter mainly - hooked a couple of steam trains & lost em - did land a nice 8lb brown one fine sunny Friday arvo - not really an expert up there but its nice to fish .........

If you got a Kayak and a jigging set up & some spare time - try lake Rotoiti put in at gisborne point paddle out to the 5km bouy & Jigg above & below it depending on how the wind is drifting/pushing ya around - you should be in about 25m if you get on them - hang on for some nice fish - Told a mate to do the same last year on his 2nd drift he got a 10.5lb rainbow - having only got sea fish before he thought this was normal so took it home & filleted it.....
