Wet to the closest stream to Hamilton - the Canny Fanny Far - leisurely start getting there about 10.00 and fished cicada pattern, exclusively. Fishing was good - 10 rainbows - biggest about 1.5 kg but most about 0.5 - 0.75 kg but in fantastic condition!
I must be getting old as I found wading on those bouldery/rocky withs hard yakka. 
One fish swallowed down and hooked into gills and wouldn't revive, so I took it - nice chunky fish of about 0.7 kg. When I got back to the car there was another car in the car park and someone asked if they could buy my trout - I was hot and thirsty as and I swapped it for 2 icy cold Steinys!! Good deal for both of us!!
Lost a few but almost every pocket of fastish water held fish. Funny, so close to home but I've never fished it very much??
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken
