HEADLINES


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 Maritimes are out. 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

Headlines:  Fishing reports have been good again this week.  The lakes have provided the most reports and  Eucumbene has produced yet again with some excellent baitfishing with ,worms,Grubs and the fly fishing has been outstanding.  Jindabyne has also fired over the weekend with some great trolling

 

 
Flyfishing Rivers:- most rivers are fishing well with good number of browns heading upstream.With good rain in the past week we should see good numbers of fish in the Euc and jindy rivers most fisherman are getting good fish around 5lb pluse with some good reports of fish 12lb pluse if your lucky,Most rivers are in flood so this will make the fishing a lot better for the long weekend.Best fly’s are black B/H Nymphs and Glow bugs when the Sun is going down best trying a black Woolly bugger these fly’s have been getting good Results.
 
Best areas to fish are all over the Eucumbene River and the Thredbo up past the hatchery and around paddys corner best Rig is a Glow Bug with a Nymph Below if you find the fish are a little spooky two Nymphs will work well.
Remember the weather can change quick so take warm clothing and let someone now where you are going best been safe Than sorry.

The high country rivers have really fished well this season with most fish caught on . Adams parachute, yellow stimulators , royal humpies , royal wullfs , elk hair caddis , red tags , Adams , Klinkhammers.
Most of the smaller steams will start getting harder to fish in the next few weeks with the colder weather moving in so get out there why you can and enjoy them why you can.
Remember the river is for everyone so get up there and have a good time and have a good weekend.
 


 
  

 

G'day guys, 
I picked up a nice brown today on dry (#12 deer hair brush) in a Canberra creek. It was nice to see it take off the  top this late in the season and it put up a great fight, I watched it sulk under it's bank for a while after I let him go.
Cheers, Mickey.


 
 Lake Eucumbene:-it’s just getting better every day. the lake is still fishing the best it has ever been this winter it's going to be a cracker now we have had good rain the lake level is on the rise and fishing well.With a lot of fish still moving around the shore lines. Very nice rainbows and Browns coming in over the last few weeks.Many of these fish are taking black & brown woolly buggers, B/H Nymphs black, brown, Green. lf your finding it hard to get the fish when you see them rolling around in the water this would be a good time to put a Klinkhammer on you will get good results. The rainbows seem to come in feeding close all day. The rising lake levels have really got the fish feeding so if you are going fishing on the Lake this is the time to be there. The Rainbows are getting fat and feeding on any think they can get ,snails, Midge,Good news is the browns have been moving around as well with good reports around Yens, seven Gates, Rushys most been caught on woolly buggers black, brown, olive
Best fly’s are woolly worms, woolly buggers, B/H black Nymphs black, brown, Green, Mrs Simpsons, Klinkhammers, black woolly buggers, brown woolly buggers, when using B/H Nymphs let them sink you will get good results.
Best areas to fish are Rushys, seven gates, Yens, Buckenderra,  
Remember the fish have been feeding all day so get out there and have a good day my best tip is on the lake with a Klinkhammer or Mrs Simpson the Browns and Rainbows are going mad, there fat and hitting hard. more good reports are coming from around Rushys and seven gates using black woolly bugger, black Nymphs with a very slow retrieve. Most fish are still rolling around on top off the water so when you see this the best fly to use is a Klinkhammer Olive we have been getting good Results.
This lake is going to be fishing well all winter so when the rivers closes we are all still going to get some good fish so plan your trip and be ready for a great winter.
 


 

Lake Jindabyne:-had some good reports from Jiny on the west side on the fly with woolly buggers black, brown, Mrs Simpsons, Hammills Killer. Are picking up some good fish so if you do get some fish from Jiny sent some photos to.info@alpineangler.com.au

Tantangara:- good reports are starting to come out of the great Lake the fly fisherman are picking up some good rainbows and browns best fly’s are Woolly Worm black, Mrs Simpsons, Woolly Buggers black, Olive, brown.
          

 


The weather may not have been the best but the fishing WOW Chunky cheese, Chunky cheese, Chunky cheese that has been the powerbait for the week with a lot of rainbows caught they have also been using scrub worms  we have seen groups come through at Buckenderra catching 20, 30, 40 over the weekend some up to 3lbs and still very healthy all went away happy.

Fly fishing no.14 shaving brush merger done well and very small black midges yet again tough fishing but worth it was the overall comment

Trolling was certainly quiet  we only heard of a couple caught in their boats,  the fish are all being caught of the banks.

That’s it from Buckenderra Holiday Village hope you all enjoy the long weekend and maybe we will see you here.

 

Regards

Terri

Tonic Eyeware
Polarised sunglasses that cut glare without losing clarity.
By creating a lense that incorporates four colours, and coating the inside of the lense with an anti-reflective film, the wearer will enjoy true eye protection without losing any colour perception. A decentred lense allows the wearer to see straight ahead, up and down and also peripherally, without experiencing any optical distortion.
In addition the new glass lenses are a lighter weight and come in a choice of grey or photochromic (darkens automatically according to light conditions) copper. There is also a polycarbonate lense version in grey or copper.
