13 - 14 February Gungarlin River Weekend
|
|
Camping for two days next to the beautiful Gungarlin River. Experience some exciting dry fly fishing on a pristine alpine stream, which is full of feisty little rainbow trout, with the occasional larger one in the mix to keep you on your toes. It is the perfect place for beginners to get onto a few fish and pick up a few pointers. There might be some casting tuition on offer on the Saturday morning for the any beginners who are interested.
