HI all, I have been busy with the bream classic but I got out in the kayak for a fish in the derwent today landing another pb from the yak.
It was 64cm and weighed 6lb.

peril, I got it on a sx40.
It took it a rod length out from the kayak and he played up heaps, I think it jumped three times and took four masive runs.
I played the fish for ages as I didn't wan't to rush him to the net and risk loosing him.

Real nice fish Sam. Do you target these trout at a certain time of year down there, or is it any time of year option ? I'm starting to work on some of Victoria's sea-run brown population. It's nothing like tassies though. Have you fished Arthurs ? I saw a pic of a guy I know with a 6.5 kg brown he took from there I think. He said it was chasing minnows in about 1/2 metre of water when he caught it! Would love to have the options for trout fishing you have down there. p.s. how have drought conditions effected tassies waters? Mick

mick, I normaly fish the derwent from september to november.
this is the prime time for searunners as they are chasing whitebait.
this year has been the best year for searun trout I have ever seen bcause the lack of rain we have had.
