Last winter season trip to the South Coast is done and dusted. This time salmon were on the smaller size compared to previous trips, but pretty good fun on an 8wt nevertheless. A few creatures have been keeping the company on the beach and enjoying the sun and warming weather, as it can be seen in
Blue Mountains in the rain video
Just realised I haven’t posted this video of the brown trout fishing in the small creeks of the Blue Mountains, which I made a while ago. So here it is. Hopefully the quality of fishing is gonna be as good the next coming season. Fingers crossed.
Winter Aussie Salmon. Again.
That’s that time of the year again. Winter. When Australian Salmon schools up and congregate closer to shore or in the estuaries in big numbers. Some places they are a bit harder to get on the fly, other places they’re quite easy. This was one of those days where we’re hooking into

Holiday Bass

New England Xmas Cod
Finally after planning to fish New England rivers for cod for so long I did it over the Xmas break this year. This has been on my to do list forever, but sort of always hesitated due to it being totally unexplored area to me. Travel plans and holiday activities came together nicely and I was able
Back to the Blue Mountains
After spending some time over in Europe it was nice to come back home and get onto the trout streams of the Blue Mountains. Season has gotten into a full swing by now, with plenty of wildlife and insects out and about. I managed to do one day trip to one of my favorite spots, where majority of the
