Col, Chris and I have been to New Zealand's South Island in November! This is our fourth trip together in the south island.
It was the best fishing trip yet! The weather was spectacular, although the local farmers were all crying out for rain. The rivers were very fishable, with clear fresh water flowing down rivers with stone bottoms.
The fish were co-operating as well. We caught both browns and rainbows, on dry flies (often using blow flies which are a blue humpy style pattern) and small nymphs.
A total of 16 fishing days, thanks to my wife Merrie who helps me organise the flights and some parts of the accommodation. She also allows me the time to spend in one part of God's incredible creation. Thanks Merrie.
Three Aussie blokes who had one purpose, that is to catch trout in one of the most spectacular parts of the world. One couple commented in one of our caravan parks that we stayed in that they were impressed by the the way we worked together, in this case it was the preparation of our evening meal.
Thankyou Col, Chris and the South Island New Zealand.
