Awesome day today. Last fish of the day was a sitter. The kind you knew you were going to fool. Classic take. #flyfishingnz #browntrout #dryfly #sitter #stokedtotallystoked
They just keep rolling in. Not all have been easy. They seem to be full of energy, some of the most incredible acrobatics, head shakes and dogged attempts to bury you. The suns about to break thru. This is fun.. yeeeoow.. #itson #bailworkgofishing #rainbows #flyfishingnz #southland #fiordlandfishingguide

Fish are on the feed today. This nice condition rainbow couldn’t resist. A couple fly changes got the eat. #manicmates #southland #flyfishingnz #fiordlandfishingguide #ginclearmedia #stokedtotallystoked

Searching new water on a cloudy day. Conditions didn’t hold much promise. The Browns were just not on the feed. Even the rainbows were proving fussy but there’s always one that can’t resist. #southland #flyfishingnz #fiordlandfishingguide

Like Black & White. A complete contrast from yesterday. Fish were on the feed. Few to the net. Solid Southland Brown Trout on the dry. That’s what I’m talking about. Totally Stoked. #flyfishingnz #southland #trout #fiordlandfishingguide #manicmates #slowmotion #interested #stokedtotallystoked.
Right place Right weather Wrong wind. Talk about fish not on the feed and SPOOKY. If it’s not rain it’s the wind. Worked this stunning fish over and finally got the eat. Bumped into a fellow guide who experienced similar results. Dropped into another spot on the way home to test the theory. Saw a few but same result, Moody. #flyfishingnz #trout #notinterested #fiordlandfishingguide #guideslife #manicmates

It was good to get out before a couple Guide days early last week to get an idea of what was fishable. Found this guy deep in some tea coloured water that pounced all over my offerings. #southland #trout #flyfishingnz #highwater #fiordlandfishingguide

With most major rivers still high and coloured it was small creek attack. I love this stuff, my bread and butter. It does however overwhelm anglers who are not used to it. Hod did a great job today and landed flies exactly where needed. Lots of quick aggressive takes were lost unfortunately. 8/0. Lesson - Be connected with the fly as soon as it lands, no time for slack line.

Great day today with Hod. Picked the teeth out of it and found a wee bit of joy. 2 on the dry fly. Happy with that. #southland #fiordlandfishingguide #ginclear #stokedtotallystoked

It’s all about timing. When the sun shines and water levels are right your in the game. Nick Reygaert buckled up and trying to convince. On the prowl. @ginclearmedia #southland #flyfishing #nz #trout #fiordland #simms #canon #manicmates #stokedtotallystoked

A Peachy well fed little rainbow from yesterday. A real buzz on a lightweight fly rod Scott Radian 5wt. #scottflyrods #rainbowtrout #southland #manictackleproject #ginclearmedia #stokedtotallystoked
