FLYFISHING EUCUMBENE
Flyfishing is still going well around the mouth off the river and down towards Anglers Reach most fishermen are using inter fly lines with woolly buggers, fuzzys, woolly worms with a really slow retrieve
If you can handle the night fishing black woolly buggers are working well. Make sure when using a inter fly line make your leader around “6,foot”.
Over at Buckenderra things have been a little slow so try a fuzzy wuzzy with a slow retrieve.
Rushes bay use the same flie and retrieve as Buckenderra.
Seven gates if you are fishing the mornings try a Mrs Simpson trailing a brown or black Nymph behind it around noon change over to a woolly bugger or a woolly worm.
Best wet fly to use would be the fuzzy wuzzy overall
LAKE EUCUMBENE TROLLING
Most off the trolling reports are coming from the top end with good results around Anglers Reach, Braemer Bay, Observation point and over at Collingwood bay.
Most fish have been taking Tassie Devils out wide with some good reports off rainbow and the Browns taking the rapalas .
Trolling up past Angler Reach has been ok with the odd rainbow and Brown but once you have got to the river mouth you best stopping and have a cast fishermen are still getting good fish
But remember stay away from the visible flow all fishing around there is still going well.
