Lower Tongariro photo story

WIth most other trout fishing rivers and lakes closed for spawning we expected more angler pressure down river. The photos tell the story.

Starting below the road bridge a new species of fisherman have taken over. Maybe something to do with the duck shooting season?

One angler seen in lower bridge pool with a trout.

The Braids car park illustrates the angler pressure. No vehicles at all.

Good to see adjoining owners to the track down river have landscaped their boundary.

Duff’s Pool deserted.

Log Pool deserted.

There were more prints from horse hooves than anglers – but they cheat with four legs.

Reed Pool deserted.

Jones Pool deserted.

Beautiful still Autumn weather.

Some big cruisers were tucked in behind the snag.

Smallmans Reach deserted.

The river course meanders and changes each season.

Plenty of elevated positions on the track for spotting fish.

The Parade has changed again.

Plenty of new snags.

That’s all folks…
