Marty and Elise from Tassie getting their first taste of bass fishing landing 1 from 10 encounters. With an unstable barometer and wet, windy conditions, the bass were keen to chase the fly but hesitant to commit to an all out attack.
The fish appeared to be either sideswiping or just mouthing the fly before retreating back to their snag. The end result was 8 missed hits and 2 unstoppables that easily busted the 12lb leader.
Bass can be a tough adversary at times but thats what keeps us coming back for more. Thanks for a great day out on the water guys 🎣🙌

Our annual pilgrimage to the high country with cousin Ben was a roaring success this year. A slow start to the trip but by the 3rd day we were swinging with the best of them. A rise in the water level over night filled the river with fish and the last day was an absolute gem!!🎣🎣🎣

Fantastic day on the water with Glen, Matthew and Sam. The boys were new to fishing and Matthew had never used a bait caster. By the end of the day he was skip casting under trees, learnt how to tie new knots and had a ball. It’s a gift to see people achieve a goal. Sam for the win with an 68cm cod off the top . 💥

Jeff Forsee AKA Aotearoa Anglers joining us for the first 2 days of the cod season.

Jeff is a highly accomplished angler and long time fishing guide in NZ so it was a great honour to guide him through New England.

Jeff has an impressive list of captures including peacock bass in Bolivia and taimen in Mongolia, yet he was absolutely captivated by our Aussie native fish.

Kangaroos, emus, cockatoos, turtles and even drop bears 😉 adding to the experience for what was a great start to the season.

😲 Looking forward to this episode. NRS Guide Harry took the My Fishing Place crew out west and had a couple of fantastic sessions. Don't miss this episode.....it's going to be an absolute cracker!!! 💥🎣❤️

The start of Season 5 is almost here, for our first show of the season we are visiting the New England Region chasing the iconic Murray Cod and the boys catch a bunch.

Nothing pays like perseverance. After 4 hours of casting without raising a fish, I could almost smell donuts in the air. Even the guide was saying..."Put down the fly rod Mick cross to the dark side and take the baitcaster. You'll catch more fish on lures" he said 😈 But the guide misjudged Mick, you see Mick is a fly fisher and a Victorian. Mick had escaped the dictator and could even walk on water 😂 Needless to say the donuts were not needed that day.

Channel 7’s My Fishing Place visited New England last week and Harry was more than happy to guide them around. Harry spent 3 days with the cast and crew showing them the best fishing in the area.

Day 1 Bracey from Bush2Beach Adventures smashed his personal best by landing a 102cm wild river Murray Cod! To say he was stoked is an understatement. “I’ve been chasing this moment for 25 years and finally caught a fish of a lifetime!” Bracey said.

That day a number of other cod were landed by the crew and a few golden perch too. Day 2 the weather changed and the boys struggled to put fish in the landing net with only a few cod tallied.

Day 3 a change in location put the boys back onto the fish. Several cod were encountered throughout the day all between 60 and 82cm. A few unstopables were lost to the snags. Harry reported that it’s great to see after all the flooding rain, the fish are looking fat and healthy and fish numbers are in abundance.
