Fly Fishing New Zealand...Open day rewards

It's the first day of October here in New Zealand where most of our regular rivers are open for another season. I set upon trying out a stream that has low numbers to potentially get a guaranteed spot for the day.

Nice work Tristan, funny how some fish will rocket upstream through fast water when hooked, great quality fish from a skinny water stream, great start to the season

Cracking start to your season, well done. There must be great feeding for those trout during the winter months to be in such healthy condition at the start of your season.
