Tongariro River Flow: 27.7m3/sec Weather: Sunny

It is a stunning day for Turangi seeing a good number of anglers parked up and getting ready for a day of fishing after the rainfall we received over the weekend, which should encourage more fresh-run rainbows into the system. 
Pink or orange beaded nymphs have been the common theme for this morning as customers top up their fly boxes in preparation for the day ahead. Category 3 - Pink Bead Carpet Caddis and Always Borderline - Siren are great options to have in your fly box over the autumn/winter months especially when the water is coloured or flowing high. 
The team all put their headlamps on for a night session looking for brown trout feeding in the shallow stream mouths and Alex got himself a beautiful gold bar caught on a black streamer.
