SFCC FISHING COMPETION - GOULBURN RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES INCLUDING EILDON PONDAGE TROUT OPENING OF RIVERS SATURDAY 5TH SEPTEMBER Please note: the next SFCC fishing competition will be at one of our most challenging locations - Goulburn River and tributaries including Eildon pondage. The Goulburn today is flowing at 1000MGL which may change by Saturday and recently stocked and with stonker rainbow and brown trout by VR Fish and there's been some good fish caught recently. Given the number of anglers out and about of Saturday the Goulburn is best fly fished by moving all the time until you locate the trout - good exercise also. The Goulburn River and the Pondage should be fished with a fast sinking line 5-7 IPS, with a shorter than normal leader. (9ft is plenty.) Leader for stonker trout at least 10lb. Beaded flies at least 3mm to gdet down into the water where fish are quicker. Flies that work well in this river and pondage are streamers,woolly buggers, shreks, rooster, greenies, blackies, Tom Jones', mudeye and nymphs. The trout should be on the hunt after spawning. Good idea to vary your retrieve, and change flies when you think it's time. Other flies to keep in m ind given many of these trout have recently come from circling in hatchery ponds are mop flies whcih resemble their food source for the last four years. Fluro colours are also enjoyed by hungry trout!
