Its all too easy nowadays to get so tied up in work that people don’t take time out to enjoy themselves with a few mates. For those of you that enjoy the challenges of fly fishing, here is a shot of a mate of mine taken last year with a “fish on” in the Hydro Pool down on the Tongariro. Its that time again so in just on four weeks I will be up to my waist in cold water dangling a line on the many pools available on this wild fishery river which would have to rank up there with some of the best in the world and certainly our own country.
