{{+1}}Fly suggestions – Central Tasmania (Arthurs, Penstock, Little Pine & Bronte){{-1}}
{{start}}
This is a list of flies that I know all work well for the lakes around Miena and Bronte in Central Tasmania. I hope this will help you get more out of your next fly fishing trip to the Central Highlands of Tasmania.{{end}}
{{+1}}Fly lines that I use – #3 & #4 trout in rivers{{-1}}
{{start}}
All my #3 and #4 weight fly lines are loaded onto a BFR 5/7 modular spools which many would say is better suited to a #6 weight rod. I do have smaller reels that I don’t use because the slightly heavier reel helps me keep the rod tip high because it overbalances the butt of the rod. This helps a lot when your holding the tip of a 10 or 11 foot #3 0r #4 weight fly rod high for a full 3 hour session.{{end}}
{{+1}}Fly lines that I use – #6 trout in lakes{{-1}}
{{start}}
I select the best fly lines that I can for particular situations and have set up my gear so that I can relatively easily take one fly line off and replace it with another, during a fishing session, so as to achieve my goals. This process has left me with the following five 'go to' 6 weight fly lines in my lake kit to cover all my lake based trout fishing options:{{end}}
