Australian Salmon on Fly

After heavy rains, dirty water, and with most trout fisheries closed, we decided to spend a couple of hours on the Tamar River. Between Ray, Dale and myself we landed more than 40 Australian Salmon on the fly.

Excellent wild brown trout

Kat’s first Tasmanian wild brown trout
Kat enjoys a lot of fishing in WA, mainly in saltwater, and is delighted to land her first ever wild Tasmanian brown trout at Arthur's Lake. In early February, fishing amongst the shade of the trees on a hot bright day will often bring great results.
Late summer dry fly action

Great Lake brown trout
After many visits to Tasmania and lots of good trout, this is one of Peter's best browns on the dry for a while. Out on Great Lake chasing the sharks in less than average conditions, this strong fish took some coaxing to bring in.
