Comments:

A better day on the river today with action in most of the beats.
The fly of the day was the Sunray shadow !!!!!
A red letter day for rob waddington with four fish from nor camp, biggest 30 lbs.
Colin M experienced the joy of the yokanga salmon today with his first yokanga sunray salmon of 17 lbs, hunted his fly around the pool at the bottom of poachers rapids.


  
Even though the fishing has been tough, people have experienced salmon takes like never before, thanks to this wonderful river.
