Just keep an eye out for some road kill , tie a few flies , all sorted. Obviously get license and become familiar with regs, I don,t lake fish . I got a bit of spare road kill so could probably flick you some tied to some hooks if you short. Have a good one. |

Stop while you still can Grant, I'm telling ya, don't let it happen to you like it did to the rest of us in here..... But if you have to, with the gear you have, just get yerself some Pat Swift jigging flies and head for places like stump bay.
