    New England....Australia

    One last session before our season ends here.....just a quicky.
    Weather forecast for Thurs & Friday looked good. Rain clearing, Sunny & Frost.
    The river levels for my favourite creek looked perfect, just under metre.

    I set the alarm for midnight so i could travel down south & be on a new stream first thing in the morning.
    New creek first up...running high wide & dirty. Still managed to catch a few off the main current.





    Stinging nettles were everywhere along the banks, my shins are all itchy & scratchy just thinking about them.


    Then a leisurely afternoon drive, heading for a camp ground & good nights sleep......


    ....& a room with a view, sleeping bag & bivvy bag in the back of the ute, roughing it..... man was i tired & to lazy to pitch the tent !


    The news was the same in this area too.....apparently the rivers & creeks had doubled over night.

    moooo...ve !


    who me ?


    Until the next season opens.....

    Great photos.
    Those nettles can be a hazard, been there.

    Thanks
