Marcus, wanted to fly fish again in Tasmania and also participate in the Wooden Boat Festival, so he came down a few days before the WBF and got into the dry fly fun with the February ‘hoppers’ about.

Day 1 with a nice touch of ‘high stick’ control on this lively stream fish, above.

Then on a longer line take with a good looking brown picked up on the dry found lurking under the strap weed.
