been down in the catlins for a few days, fishing was pretty slow with mostly small Trout around 2lb although seen plenty of decent sized fish in the clutha but they where tackle shy, called into the Tairei today on the way home and got a big perch close to 4lb and trout around 3.5lb.

I only spin fish at the moment, mostly use Rapalas in the Brown Trout pattern or storm softplastics. like you I often struggle with fishing the opihi during the day but found overcast days and using smaller lures seems to improve the success rate.

Chris Anker with a fine 14lb brown trout hen from Ohau A which Chris released to fight another day. I’ve spent quite a bit of time down at the canals recently fishing and filming. Most of the big fish are being released which is good to see. Click on the picture to enlarge. That was a very nice fish. Solid as and in excellent condition.
