Hi All

Just got here in January and am a long time fly fisherman looking for some good company

Unfortunately had to sell most of my gear but managed to bring my 5wt Orvise and my 9wt Sage :)

I have done a lot of fresh water fishing for Yellow fish and trout etc.

Oh well I am just looking for some good guys to show me where we fly fish here in WA.

Regards
Steve

G'day Steve,

I'm sure we can show you some good spots to fish and you won't feel too far removed from home if you have a South African accent to match the yellow fish experience. I'm not so sure we can find you some good company though … :D

Cheers,
Graeme

Welcome Stephen

Nice size Yellow. From Sterkfontein dam?
There are a few South Africans in the club but beware, they speak a strange language sometimes....hahahaha

Come to the next club meeting and have a chat to the guys. They might not tell you their secret fishing spots but they are helpful with tactics, flies and gear selection.
