It has been a great start to Autumn, the Goulburn river is fishing well from the drift boat with great dry fly action, the small streams are on fire with most fish on hoppers and willow grubs. The highlight over the next month will be Goulburn river as the Autumn sippers begin to rise throughout the day. To book a day on the drift boat hit the link below.
