Hey Guys long time since I've done fishing report. Have been tied up moving house and have lived in something like 6 houses in 18 mths Unhappy 

I got away for a bit of a northern holiday and caught a few natives on an ultralight flyrod I built on a Japanese Kabuto blank. Don't think the blank designer would have imagined it would be bent on Aussie tropical freshwater species.

A couple of pics


Cheers
Cliff
