New Zealand report & PICTURE

Just a pretty sunrise picture of Lake Tarawera and Mt. Tarawera. Mt. Tarawera in 1883 blew off its top a la Mt. St. Helen's.

Here is a two year old fish from Lake Rotoiti that is pushing six pounds. Amazing condition factor on the fish out of Lake Rotoiti.

A nine pound rainbow out of Lake Rotoiti with a doll fly in its mouth. The fly is a Mustad 9672, Size 8 with a green poly tail & back with the body wrapped with lumo material. You charge the fly about every fourth cast to keep it glowing.

Last of the New Zealand pictures. Getting ready to release an 8.5 pound rainbow from Lake Rotoiti. This is a three year old fish according to the local biologist.

I couldn't beleive my New Zealand guide when he showed me one of his glow-in-the-dark flies. He told me that they were deadly.

Gordon, you are provoing that they are. Keep up the good work.
