I surely hope you managed to recycle the whitebait too???

try a whitebait type fly..tied about a meter up from your toby...two ways to do it. either tidy swivel and thread fly on above it,curve of hook towards main line so it tucks in....or have about 8" of...

freshie is trout or salmon that has recently arrived in river to spawn,thus its FRESHly arrived usually in top condition as has fattened up for the spawning effort.

slab as I said four posts back,is a post spawning fish that is skinny and SLABsided.....thus called a slab.
back in the 80s a slab was also a 24 pack of cans on a cardboard tray,one of the road...

that sounds like a post spawning trout...referred to as "slabs" because they are slabsided and not good eating at all. given a bit of time to feed up the yput the condition back on again.

my Aunty was a lovely Nga puhi lady...she was sitting on beach having a feed of oysters and fisheries...

that knot looks very much like what we use to join mono onto a fly line...never had one let go and yes they bite into plastic cover really well. if worried you could always loop wire back onto itself...
