Boonie, basti knows the spot.. the walks really something haha! But worth it.. whilst I haven't landed any monsters outta there yet I've lost a big fish on two occasions. Caught some smaller models on bait..

I did catch a tagged fish tho which was cool! Rang up n gave the details when I got the certificate it showed that the fish had grown 100 odd mm and was k's downstream from where it was tagged.. goes to show they do move up and down the system

Might be time to drag the kayak up to some of the harder to reach pools on the yarra. Sounded out large parts of it from Finns up to Yerring Gorge so got a good idea where many of the deep pools are
