Nice fish April! I think you would enjoy the Eucumbene in the warmer months also, it's a fabulous river outside of spawning season too. The Snowy Mountains in general has some really good trout fishing right through the season. :)
There is a book by Peter Leuver titled “Fur and Feather “ and is mostly dedicated to the Snowy Mountains/NSW. If you get hold of a copy I am sure you will really enjoy it.
As far as fish stocking in Eucumbene, fisheries only stock Rainbows not Browns. So the population of brown trout have steadily declined to what we have today simply caused by fishing pressure. Compared to the numbers of thirty years ago the run is minuscule due to current fisheries policies.. The spawning fish depend on a couple of things ie: water flow and temperature. If there is enough flow and its cold enough they will spawn a lot earlier than stated here. Hence the argument for an earlier closure to the river.
Great content! It reminds me the end of the season is coming fast.
My favorite of all your vlogs

Cool video and some great fish April 👍🏻
Really cool video! ... Definitely not in Kansas anymore, but really neat to see that landscape and fishery on the other side of the planet!
Used to always fish there at night. Get’s a bit chilly but, no crowds and MUCH bigger fish. Wet flies and intermediate line
Great video April! Your daughter is so adorable. ❤
Thanks Christelle! Great to hear from you!

Hey, can I ask what the accomodations called?
WOW!!! Pretty cool. I'm such a silly American. When I think Australia, I NEVER THINK SNOW!!! LOL! New Zealand, yes. But Australia???....ok. I get it.

Grew up fishing lake Eucumbene then moved to Canada and fish the vedder- you hit both my homes in this one with that comment 😂
Same as me, living in Harrison
@@paultowns4273 oh sweet!! That’s so cool bro. Come check out some of my footage as well 🙌🏻🤙🏻
👍👍👍✌
Didn't realize you had your own channel now! Love your podcast!
The rainbows aren't spawning. Their there to eat the browns eggs
Is it always crowded like that?
The end of season spawn run is crazy but at other times it’s much less crowded.
@@bertiebeetle525 Yep, the next 2 weeks are going to be crazy crowded up there.
Was this a Patagonia commercial? 😂
With Simms boots? 🤔
@@AprilVokey just kidding
Years ago in summer that entire area you are fishing would be under water. In winter it all be mud flats with the river flowing through the middle.
You should go with David B
