The long trip down the warm coastal strip with its acres of swaying sugar cane fields,
& large wide mud brown waterways are behind me now.
Eucalyptus scented the cool mountain air.
Moist morning mist soon dispersed leaving a cloudless, blue sky day.

Promised myself earlier in the season I would return to this little jem with a 2wt in hand & I did.

All browns....a bakers dozen came & went...I fished on, enjoying the surrounds & willing mouths.

My grumbling belly reminded I had skipped breakfast, so I sat down on a moss covered rock, mid stream,
& ate a belated breakfast.......content.
A few more pools & runs beckoned....as they always do....then I slowly climbed up through the old stands of rainforest, back out to the car park. A new favourite added to the list.

After lunch, a quick session on another stream with a much easier access, just 100m from the dirt road.
Seemingly rainbow only water....slower session, but fruitfull all the same.
