| Beautiful Spring weather in Turangi today and pleasantly warm once the sun chased away the early morning chill. I didn't get to the river until 10.00 am and with no cars parked in Koura street decided to head to Judges. Walking down the track I was surprised how few anglers there were ... just one in the Breakfast pool. Even my favourite town pool was empty and I didn't see a sole the whole time I was there.

| Another pretty good week on the Tongariro and not that many anglers around considering its the school holidays. But I suspect the tricky wind and heavy rain over the last few days has something to do with that. There's been fresh fish showing up all week but not in big numbers. And once again a lot of them seem to be those smaller hens. I notice most of these have been ripe with eggs and even if you're careful when returning them, often times they'll begin to drop their precious cargo before they swim off. This probably explains why they're not hanging about. And I don't think I've fished anyw ... |
