*Attention the Alpine Angler has lost a Abel brown Trout knife on Thredbo river at Ski Tube location. Reward offered Six of beverage for safe return.*

We are getting a lot of feed back from the Seven Gates area about fires and rubbish left all over the place.
Please be mindful to take your rubbish with you and clean up after yourself.
 
Please be sure to carry your PFD & fishing licences as NSW Maritime are out at Christmas time. Nsw fisheries inspectors are working the Snowy Mountains area during the peak holiday season. So remember if you do not have a current fishing licence and on your person you will be fined. So for the sake of 5 minutes do yourself a favour.

Maritime services are on the lakes, So make sure you water craft are up to par with current safety standards, if you are not sure contact Ph 13 12 56 or website: www.maritime.nsw.gov.au

Rivers:

A few pics of some of the many fish bagged in paradise. Most fish fell victim to a Royal Wolf with a black bead head dropper. It is a hard life waking in the morning to the sounds of Dingoes howling, clear sunny days and a stiff afternoon wind. Oh to be back.




A few spinning anglers are coming up trumps on the river as well. The Celta in size 1 & 2 are still performing really well in brown trout and rainbow colour. Rapala lures in CD3 trout colours are still taking a few fish.

Lake Jindabyne fly:

Still no current Jindy fly reports.The lake has been fishing well when you can pick the days with good weather. But no reports have come in over the last weeks.

Best flies at present are Mrs Simpson brown ,Mrs Simpson olive. Woolly buggers Olive & Black, B/H Nymphs black, Fuzzy Wuzzys, Williams Goldfish.

Trolling and Spinning

Eucumbene 

Another great week of fishing we had some nice cold days last week with a bit of snow falling one day but that did not stop the fishing. Trolling with the Eucumbene bomber is still doing the job but yellow wing Tassie’s are favourite’s and young John Cox caught a nice 4.25lb brown clean on a lofty cobra 100y.

Here is Joyhn Cox with a healthy Brown Trout.
