Just returned from a quick week long trip to Tasmania,
seeing family members, bushwalking, with a little trout fishing thrown in.
Will return again after Christmas, when the weather warms, for a more fish oriented journey.
Hope you enjoy the pics.
The planning stage.

Baby wombat nestled safely between her mothers legs. Uh Oh... she knows I'm there.

Brookies only waters. Lk Plimsoll onthe left & Lk Selina on the right, a rugged, wind ravaged wilderness area.

Gingerbread Hut, Mt Rufus. Cute, little emergency shelter.

A favourite stream I can never seem to stay away from, fished her 2years ago & it hasn't changed a bit,
tea coloured with dark, dense rainforested banks, used to be a rainbows only water,
now infiltrated with browns. Some things change, some stay the same.

The 'Vale'.
Didn't catch a sausage, spooked maybe 9 fish hanging under the undercut banks…a little frustrating.
Then I misjudged my footing & went a fell arse over tit…tussock grass spearing straight up the nose,
...to make things worse, I must have dislodged my lunch from my day pack at the same time…..& lost that too.
Fishless, cold & hungry, I treated myself to a counter lunch at the nearest local.
Mmmm, porterhouse steak, pepper sauce & vegies + garlic bread rolls, next to roaring open fire.
