The weekend's rain brought some nice fish to the winter shoreline spawning areas. This cracker #rainbow jack is from #Tarawera

Up the jungle for a morning session now casting to big Brown and eager Rainbow trout.

Over a dozen fish landed and retuned and a couple of monsters lost.

Still some colourful #browntrout running into the Lake #Rotorua streams and just 3 weeks left before the upper reaches close for winter

Some of our smaller, lesser know lakes are worth a visit at this time of the year. Rerewhakaaitu, Okaro, Nagpouri, Rotoma, Rotoehu and Tikitapu are all good spots for a trout fish

A beautiful day, crystal clear water and some impressive trout on Tarawera today.

[Eastern Fish & Game @EasternFishGame]

Some nice fish coming thru the trap - this solid 3 year old (Rpad fin mark) hatchery release jack is just under 3kg.
Hopefully it's a sign off things to come?

Perfect weather for a shoreline fish. Good numbers at all the release points including The Landing and Te Wairoa, Ruato and Hinehopu

There are a lot of questions out there about what can and can't be done at the moment. Here's a handy web page which allows you to search for things you can do while under level 3 restrictions:

Beautiful day at Tarawera for the Level 3 'opening'. A few anglers enjoying the sun and majestic views.
Lots of fish smelting off the beach this afternoon too.

Countdown is like Christmas for kids - big kids! Remember, stay local, stay in your bubble, shore based fishing only, take care.
