NYMPH MANIAC DOWNUNDER

Casting lines from a fanatical Australian/New Zealand fly fisherman

Merrie fly fishing Lake Wakapitu, South Island, New Zealand


My wife Merrie also enjoys the occasional cast. No luck this time on Lake Wakatipu (Queenstown) but she sometimes outfishes me! Her best catch to date is a 6lb brown trout from the Aparima River near Thornbury, Southland. It was about 10.30 pm at night. We had just returned to the car ready to leave when Merrie noticed the water was suddenly "boiling". Fish were literally jumping everywhere. We geared up again and were well rewarded. Ask us sometime about THE bull!
