Her personal best, a 2.8 kg rainbow, congratulations Charne !

On the week of the 21st to the 24th of July my wife and I came to our beloved fly fishing spot, “Treeferns Trout Lodge”. This is our home away from home, the fishing was very difficult because of the spawning trout, but any avid fly fishing angler will tell you to stop and look what is happening in and around the water, you will find the answers there. We saw that the trout were feeding on the surface of the water. So we changed to dry flies, with great success. My wife caught a beautiful 2.80 kg cock trout, which was her personal best, and I cashed in later with a few big brown trout, the biggest being 2.90kg, followed by a hen trout at about 2.35kg. The fishing only stopped at 18:30 with my last fish weighing in at 3.1kg. All I have left to say, is thank you to such a great place and wonderful people at Treeferns, Oom Chris and tannie Marietjie (owners) and Morne (Manager), for hosting us in such a beautiful place. All we can say is “THANK YOU”.
