Flyfishing....fishing is starting to pick up best areas are  from the mouth of Eucumbene up past providence this weekend we should see more browns going up so if you are looking for that big one this is the time to be up there now the rain has come the rivers should be running well so this is the time you should be up there to get them big ones. The Thredbo river is doing much the same as Eucumbene the fish are there but not up that fare so from the bridge down you will have better results.

*Remember that from the 1st of May the size and bag limit changes in the Eucumbene and Thredbo Rivers.  From May 1 you may only keep ONE fish OVER 50cms per day in these waters.  Fisheries will be very active this season in these waters so make sure you stick to these rules and have your fishing licence with you while fishing.

Rivers:-   

Have been fishing well with the Eucumbene and Thredbo rivers holding good numbers of fish with plenty of rainbows amongst them.  Angler numbers have been high and can make the fishing difficult at time.Water levels have been low and clear and this has made fishing challenging for some. Beadhead nymphs seem to be better performers on browns while globugs have been the favourite pattern for the rainbows.Early starts are a key to getting the most out of the rivers at present though on some mornings icing guides are an issue.  If you expect to catch a heap of fish starting after 9am, expect to be dissapointed. Fishing the harder to access areas will improve your chances greatly.Rain is really need to give a boost to the fish numbers in the Euc and Thredbo so keep an eye on the weather patterns.Other smaller streams in the area are still well worth fishing and are ideal if you want to avoid crowds.
