G'day all
lock up your women i am coming to Tassie ;D
have just been told i am overdue for a visit so my folks are putting me up for a week and giving me the grand tour, having never been there before. i have put my foot down and said i will be trying out ny new fly gear. now for the interesting part. the gear is for saltwater use up here in moreton bay. basically i will be using an 8 weight rod with a 9 weight intermediate line on board. for its locality to Launceston (base of stay) i thought of Curries River dam from the banks ( southeast ). any other suggestions in the general vicinity of Launceston? also obviously i will be using wet flies i have read that red and black Matukas are the deal for Curries. any tips on fishing this fly. any info appreciated as i am new to fly gear and this Tassy trip is out of the blue and i have no idea what i am going to do fish wise while down there.
cheers
