Have you spent the day exploring

[blaze]

Spent sat exploring some new fishing spots, plan was to see if we could get 50km upstream to where the river met the next rd on the arther river or plan 2 was to go up the arthewr river until it came to the franklin river and see if we could meet the road about 5km up there.
We ended up only 25km up the arther, about 1/2 way. Very cold, temp was about 3 degrees for most of the day.
heres some pics
cheers

Top pics there Blaze, what a great place to be in,

We dont explore much in the rivers, but I love finding new ground at sea, nothing better than catching a thumper fish on a spot that you have found all by yourself.

I do a lot of exploring at sea but something in my head kept telling me go inland, back to my youth(bloody heck that was a long time ago), so that was the purpose of this trip. Even though we fell a long way short of the intented target there is no doubt spots in this inaccesable river (by land) that may well have not had a human foot on it for hundreds of years. Looks very fishy in most areas and I think most of the snags would hold good black fish and trout. Disapointed I didnt have a sounder but put a few marks inthe gps for in the middle of a deep river and finding snags with the out board. Need a sounder next trip.
cheers
