Tongariro River Flow: 25.8m3/sec
Weather: Clear Skies and colder temperatures with an easterly breeze.
Without much rain lately the rivers are all sitting pretty low and clear which has made fishing tricky. However, the fresh fish that have been caught in the Tongariro have been of good condition and large average size with plenty of reports of rainbows pushing 6lb. Most of these fish seem to be falling to swinging streamers on the lower parts of the river in the first few hours of light. Better numbers of fish have been seen coming through the Waitahanui, Hinemaiaia and Tauranga-Taupo but with clear waters these fish have often been quite skittery.
