A small, but grand achievement today. First day of the Tasmanian trout season with a mate. Both caught a brownie on a dry fly. Small, cold creek, but the reward was there. Bring it on.

Just been to Four Springs and it looks great for trout season opening next weekend. Fixed the camera and it is back online. Check it out Anglers Alliance Tasmania

Right now is a great time to buy some fly tying gear at a fantastic price. We currently have marabou skins with soft hackle. Was $50 now $30. As well as hooks that are dramatically reduced in price from $25 to just $6 they are kamasan B983, B982 and B980 all these hooks have an extra wide gape which allows for a better lookup rate. These flies pictured are tied with both of these products and you can find them in the links below.
