toolebox 1,533 Posted June 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2021 I don't need to go very far to fresh water fish ,since I live on a dead end road leading down to one of the best brown trout rivers in New Zealand but I also like to fish different waters so we try not to fish the same waters twice within any given season .I'm pretty sure I wouldn't see more than 4/5 other fishermen during a season but that depends on where I go however there is never a shortage of spots ,any water that has a bridge over them ,you can find trout in them ,even after 50 years of fishing I still can find a spot I've never fished before ,that keeps it all very interesting .ATB TB.

toolebox 1,533 Posted June 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 90% of the trout I catch I release back into the water as I don't eat them & I like the idea that the fish is there for somebody else to catch and enjoy .I don't know if anyone has noticed the bed rock in the pictures ,rivers that have this also have good number of fresh water Crayfish which the trout target making their flesh bright Orange ,fine table fish . 1 Quote Link to post
