mulletman

i have a mate who is a pilot, he has seen big sharks crusing just under the surface at birdlings and surrounding beaches, and along the chatam islands. He said they do swim along way up the beach, then turn around and head back. so it should pick up anything on the bottom.

out of the heads, turn north, and keep going untill you see a big structure comming out of the water, its called pompys piller, might be worth a look this time of year

was fishing the styx the other day, and caught 5-6 big mullet on the fly rod, great fun

thats a realy nice fish there mate

St_Paul

ashworths beach near amberly, u cant go wrong

when you were fishing the south branch, were u fishing where it flows into the waimak?

yea, im quite looking forward to it, the begining of winter rite?

i’ve found some very imformative videos on lake lyndon fishing, (thanks to kevin o,hanlon) and i think i might head up during winter

yea fish for pot, i wont be going out for ages now aswell

i’ve heard that glow-in-the dark flys are leathal there, im sure they would work well

what are good flys for lyndon?

i have seen and caught them up the waimak river, in very brackish water

lost a few good matesin the quake, and my area is messed up alot, wont be fishing for a while

i have been told that there has never been a sailfish caught in new zealand waters

i am sorry, i was told that it was a sailfish, turns out it was just a marlin
