Default RWC New Zealand.

Hi Guys anyone heading Down Under for the Rugby World Cup?
If so did you bring your rod? If you need any pointers feel free to P.M. me.
I may even be able to manage a day of work if you want to meet up for a fish.
All the best.
Mike

I wish I was.

10lb+ wild trout, NZ choking and the Bokke lifting the cup? Priceless.

That river, or at least that part of it looks stunning!! If England (haha!) get to the final I may raid the credit card and get myself down there and knock on your door for directions to THAT river!
Regards,
Del.

Yeah sorry Delray, Mike and I must suffer such places...sadly that river is only like that for several kilometres...

I think at the last drift dive it had an average of 800 fish per Kilometre...albeit mostly small fish. Hard fishing though as the water is gin clear - they can see you as easy as you see them...

Aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh stop it. I've got friends who live just outside Auckland; Titirangi I think. Looks like I'll have to visit them, take the rods and do a bit of travelling!
Great pics, thanks.

Del.

As a Welshmen, I'm wondering if there are any cancellations for day tickets anywhere. There should be quite a few English supporters flying home early.

Na, doubt it, they've probably gone there for the fishing knowing the rugby was an also-ran!
