Generally at this time of year there is an expectation that the midge would be starting to move and that there would be plenty of fish feeding on them and mayflies nymphs in Jocks, Cobrerbald, Coppermine and Wainui bays. Well on my latest visit I saw no evidence of that so I had to go to plan B.

These nice fish ( the best was 60 cm) were all taken working amongst timber in Breamer Bay on a very windy day. I fished a team of three woolly buggers with a brown on the point, a black sparkle bugger in the middle and an olive/orange MKII on the bob on a type 5 line.

The fish are there you just have to work hard to find them.
