Past weekend saw me hit some of the waters close to home with Mark, aka Dicko, from the fishing club. Our plan was to fish Goulburn River, unfortunately it was still running dirty from the rains we received on New Year's Eve. To my surprise Eildon Pondage was no different. This left us with only one option, Lake Eildon. We found some nice looking water where we both quickly picked up a couple of redfins, but we quickly grew bored of this, we needed some trout. We decided to check in at the Goulburn Valley Fly Fishing Centre. On Antony's advice, we hit the Rubi. What a great advice it was, the river was the only fishable running water we saw in the area for the whole day. In a two hour session we both hooked into some 30 cm plus trout and landed our first Mr Speckles for the New Year. Oh yeah, my first fish on the x-mas pressie too, the Waterworks Velocity, niceee...
