      Glasses - it's a touchy subject those were my fav for years until I lent against a tree and snapped them 😔 they're AliExpress don't think they're available any more sadly

    Gidday, it’s a nice river isn’t it. Will get even more pressure this year with more overseas anglers heading to our part of the world.
    That middle section does get a hiding so not surprised you didn’t see much there as it’s a fairly quick walk up of there are anglers fishing below. Those two the lower part of the river made up for it though. They can average ~6lb in a typical year but best fished early season before the water level drops, the temps warm up and the hordes arrive!

    • @nzadventurer
      @nzadventurer  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Your right I think. How about the designated waters stuff maybe that will cool things a little? I'm interested to see how it gets enforced but let's hope it works.... See you on there 👌

    Beautiful spot here buddy, good on you. The effort by walking in is well worth the rewards 👌

      Thanks! Pleased you enjoyed! Hey I was wondering do the high country rivers over your part of the country clear at all late in the season say in May, or are they high from snowmelt if not rain?

    • @HighcountryFlylife
      @HighcountryFlylife ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @NZ Adventurer yeah they are still reasonably clear in May buddy, so they are still a good option. Obviously if you get a bit of rain they'll be dirty but recently during May they were clear.

    Autumn fishing brrrrrr ⛄️Nice to see the fish up close! And anytime you don’t catch a fish, you can just call it a hike instead. Win-win 😂. I hear the pack raft request, I’ll consider it if you submit a proper business case 😂

    • @nzadventurer

      Autumn sure is chilly. I'd be so much warmer if I had a pack raft👍🏼

    That 7lb fish would have made the whole trip worthwhile, especially in those surroundings. Pity the other angler didn't keep to his promise but there are unfortunately a few like him. Cheers and enjoyed the video

      @@nzadventurer I have been out today, some very small fish, don't know where their bigger siblings disappear to in the Wairarapa in winter to reappear in spring. But a few about and enough to have an enjoyable day..........in between trips to Turangi my favorite winter destination.
