Report from Creel Lodge on the Tongariro River
We have had a 1 in 7 year cicada
season, with a phenomenal lace
moth hatch. Add to this brown
beetle hatches in Nov/Dec and then in Feb/March; and Lake
Taupo turned over so we had good smelt,
so I expect fish to put on better than average condition.
The jury is still out on a few early runs like we used to
have in March. I pick April/May for the first time in a number
of years. |
