Winter Update

The Clutha in Otago, New Zealand is fly fishing well at present downstream from the Hawea confluence with plenty of rainbow trout either pre or post spawing so some are in good nick and other not so. When you combine the power of the mighty Clutha and even with small post spawning rainbows you’ve got a battle on. A quick trip the other day allowed us some great sight fishing opportunities to fish in riffles and between 2 fishers 8 fish to the bank and a few more lost. Due to the high fish numbers we decide to keep a couple of fish each for dinner and yummy they were. Biggest fish of the day went around 5.5lbs and smallest around 2 lbs
