Manager’s Comments: An enthusiastic group
of largely Yokanga regulars hit the river on the first evening, from Boulder
Alley down to Lyliok, and were well rewarded with 8 fish including a lovely
21lb fish for Martin M above Pump. Sunday proved testing with a very cold, very
strong wind chilling everyone to the core, however fish were picked up and
everyone had a bend in their rod at points during the day. Rob W braved the
cold evening to pick up a PB of 24lbs from Lyliok and lost another couple of
good fish – “fortune favours the brave!”
