    that’s interesting as that would be getting around the time that any searun rainbows would be on the move for their spawning run. have over the years caught 1or2 rainbows around the kaiapoi mouth during the salmon season and can recall catching the odd one in the south branch in 60’s and 70’s. might have to target them down there this winter.
