Flyfishing this weekend

With the start of the school holidays I thought I would start with a quiet fish after work. I went to my normal tarpon hole and landed 5 nice fish and dropped 2, again using the black and pink fly. I noticed that a nice slow to no retrieve worked well on the larger fish while the normal quick retrieve worked on the smaller fish. Tomorrow the NQ Flyfishers are heading to Cungella for a morning fish. So if you see us there drop in and say hello. I plan to go out in the boat on Sunday or Monday to see if there any mackerel around.
