Second Wairau Mission


Yesterday saw my second Wairau River motorbike trout mission going further up the Kaituna Tuamarina Road to see if I could get out of the wind before attempting to fish.

The wind remained, but at least it was behind me.

The water was quite cloudy, probably from some excavation work further up-river. I didn't see any trout and managed to lose the last lure I had of my favourite type, so not an overly successful mission. Was good to explore a spot I've never fished, though.
