Wow what a fantastic start to winter season with a huge dump of snow a number of weeks ago!

The water temperature level has actually dropped, the circulation has actually increased and some great fresh fish have actually started going up the Clutha on their method to their generating beds.

I have actually been out both softbaiting and swinging flies on my Change rod over the last number of weeks and have actually landed some great fish. A few of the very best coloured soft baits to utilize at the minute have actually been olive pearl, fire tiger, pinks and you can get these at Southern Wild.

Appear and see Mark and Scotty they have a fantastic choice of Berkley paddle tail soft baits. With my Change rod I have actually been utilizing a Scandi drifting line and a 12ft Airflo Clear Intermediate Poly leader with 8ft of 10lb of Maxima ultra green and a mix of weighted and unweighted banners that Father and I connect.

Father and I are likewise preparing a journey to the Canals quickly to go after some huge trout and Salmon, Mark has a fantastic choice of Daiwa Chinook entices, clear drift eggs, Berkeley braid and soft baits so appear and have a look!

Have a fantastic winter season and remain safe out there!
