Small Otago river estuary…. I think I know the one you mean
Yeah sea-runs will start coming in from September onward for whitebait, although it can be hard to tell the difference between them and resident estuary fish.
And they come again in Feb-march to spawn up-river, can get some big sea runs in them small Otago rivers, my biggest fish from last season was an 8lb brownie out of an otago estuary. I don’t think it was a sea-run fish, it was quite golden, but very nice condition. It was also one of the few fish I didn’t get a pic of
Yeah, I’m keen I don’t have access to a car though so my fishing options are limited to round Dunedin, though if I’m ever heading up your way, I’ll send you a PM
If your down Dunedin way, either when the season starts or earlier, I chould chip in for petrol and we could hit the Taieri or the waikouaiti?
