;) Well another trout season is nearly apon us - You'll be able to leave the tying bench and load the vest ! The weather has jumped straight into spring to boot.
Matt went up to Tantangarra during the week and had fish jumping for dragon flies in September ! They also managed a few fish on midge through the day. Tantangarra has fished well on the fly over the last month, and is still up on good ground - although dropping slowly at the mement.
Eucumbene and Jindabyne are both rising fairly quickly, and will be up over good ground shortly. You want to fish in the shallower area's where it's warming first, and there's more insect activity. We have seen some fantastic fish coming in from the troller's and baitfisherman ( Weighed a beautiful 10lb brown yesterday from Jindabyne taken trolling off East Jindabyne in the middle of the day!)So the fish are active and in the margins - If you don't see any movement try using an intermediate or sinking line with yabby paterns like wooly buggers. Fishing around the rocks and clay beds.
The rivers have all had a good flush through winter, with the Monaro looking greener than it has in years. The Mac has been in flood three times since July ! This warm weather may get a few duns happening as well.The Eucumbene and Thredbo rivers are running hard and still have quite a few rainbows hanging back after spawning, and should provide some good fast water nymphing.
All in all things are looking good for the opening - so call in for a cuppa on your way through !
