Goulburn / Rubicon Valley 17/11/18
Posted: Sat Nov 17, 2018 7:40 pm
I had the day off so i decided to get back up the Goulburn with a firm plan. Th plan was to park at my usual spot and work my way down stream using my 6 weight with a sinking tip line and swing my way day with streamers and then work my way back up with the 6 weight with a heavy indicator rig and use my 3 wt glass rod for drys if i saw a good spot to throw dries.
Got to the river at 7am after busting my ass up from carlton. Got to the river and it was running so high. i couldn't belive how fast and high the river was running considering we haven't had any rain in ages, didn't even get a bite after 3 hours hours so i jumped back in the truck and headed up the rubicon. Climbed my way up a mountain stream and got to a spot up high after a whole lot of hiking where every pool had a trout that would rise for a dry thrown in the middle of the pool, ended up catching 2 rainbow and brown that had the most amazing red spots on it.
Good day all up, lost a couple attractors in the blackberries tho. didn't have the photographer with me so you'll have to settle for my shitty iPhone shots :rofl:
