Hello all some more of the nice fish i've landed on the Ngaruroro over the past months
Just over 6lb Caught on black/copper wired nymph
3 1/2 lb copper /hares ear nymph
Black Flounder / Woolly bugger brown 

Rainbow 2 1/2 lb / hare /copper nymph

Caught many more not so big but just as good of a fight for a 1lb fish in this river. had high flows recently , no fish anywhere except a backwater i found. it was full of maiden fish smacking waterboatmen in there. landed 6 and lost another 5

Good stuff. Really hope to make it down that way to fish this summer.

Is it common to catch flounder on a fly?

Hi Blair, how is the fishing down there at the moment? I'll be down for labour weekend and pretty keen to give it another crack after my May attempts
