My main hobby now is fly fishing for trout and fly tying which I have been doing for over 40 years.I teach fly tying at my local fly fishing club. Happy to provide advice or help anyone who wants to get into this great sport. I mainly fly fish lakes as I like to chase big fish.My best 2 were caught at L Purrumbete way back in 70's, 2 rainbows one on just on 10 lbs and the other about 8 1/2 pounds. Sadly those halcyon days at Purrumbete are history now due to changes in stocking policy and the introduction of redfin into the lake.Some very big browns can still be caught on the fly around now when they come in to try and spawn on some of the scoria beaches.
