This is Dave Longanecker from California with a very nice Brown Trout caught and released (of coarse) . Fishing down under is really a different experience for the Angler. Wading and casting for fish in fishy water is pretty much a waste of time. It is really a two man operation. Walk the bank and go up stream until a fish is sighted and then have one Angler sneak up the bank to be closer to the fish to help present the fly to the fish. The caster must be able to cast up stream and make a presentation that is not lining the fish. Wading down stream and casting to fish just dosen't work. The fish smell you in the water and spook. This may sound funny and be something hard to believe but it sure works as you can tell by looking at Dave's fish.
I have fished all my life all around the world. If it has fins and gills, I have probably caught at least one. Get your Waterstrider and go with me. We will have some great fishing stories to tell.
