It's raining

It is raining up here today. It is also cooler. Conditions are therefore not the most comfortable for a day on the river at present (around 9am). However there are spells of brightness when the sun breaks through so hopefully conditions will improve as the day warms up. The river continues to run at an attractive fishable level.

Easter Sunday

Some overnight rain but not much. Not enough to change the river level significantly. Still nice conditions for April. Cloudy but bright. This picture, taken yesterday just below Musgrave Bridge shows the very fishable level of the river at present.

Good conditions

Good Friday Good Conditions

At 7.30am the weather is mild and predicted to remain so for the next day or two. The sun is trying to break through the clouds so the day is bright.
