Recent fishing

As I write this post I can see all the way from the town to Mounts Ruapehu, Ngauruhoe & Tongariro, Lake Taupo is so calm, only being disturbed by the Wednesday evening sailors.
The Lake has been remarkably calm over the last two weeks enabling us to fish in any location. We are often constrained by a strong South Westerly to Jerusalem or Acacia Bays. At night the lights of the town have been reflected from the lake especially when it has a mirror like finish. Sunsets have been absolutely stunning
Fishing on the Lake has been mixed, finding trout has been hard work although we have been fortunate and usually caught one or two decent fish on each Charter. Lures which have been successful are Spotty Gold, Traffic Light & Baby Brown.
The season  is winding down after Easter both in the B&B and fishing visitors, time to do some maintenance work on the boat and house.
