Late November on Four Springs
By late November the weed in Four Springs Lake was getting very thick, yet we found a few corridors in the weed where fish were working out in the open. David timed the lift on this fine brown taking his royal hairwing coachman fly and managed to apply enough side strain regularly to steer the fish away from the thick weed beds.
Fishing at Port Sorell
A change from trout fishing, which is our major pursuit, this weekend's fishing experience was in the Port Sorell estuary. We found Australian Salmon to be thin in numbers, the flathead were generally small, but as a great backup in the rocky areas around the heads of the estuary there were plenty of rock cod and hard pulling wrasse. On light tackle we had lots of fun. Five year old Campbell and his dad, Matt, hooked a number of fish. Campbell was very excited to catch his largest fish to date
