Freshwater how sweet it is!

Liam and I decided to fish the fresh before the weekend finished. Off we went to our spot North of Townsville. We fished our normal spot but nothing was really happening. We kept moving upstream and like our previous trip there were fish about in the shallows but they did not want to play the game. As we approached our last spot near the trees we managed some nice fish.

The little beasties did a great job at making us work hard. The fish used the current well. I was using a 7wt set up while Liam is still using his 9wt. Even though Liams rod is a little heavy for the fish, it does the job. A fair drive to get to the spot but again well worth while.
